Making Entrepreneurs: Lessons From A Lifetime - Tapa dura

Making Entrepreneurs: Lessons From a Lifetime [Hardcover]

Hardcover. Condición: New. Language: English. This book was prompted by the doubledigit inflationary spiral of last four years whose control has defied every conventional economic measure. Reasons are also crystal clear: Trillions of rupees being spent on budgetsupported social programmes to arrest the growing disparity between Englishspeaking UrbanIndia and the vast majority living in RuralBharat, which our economy cannot support. At the same time, we were also churning out 1 million Engineering B.Techs & half a million MBAÕs annually deep in the interior of rural India. More than 80% of them end an expensive education without a job, with their parents deep in debt.Could we not groom some of them selectively to become Entrepreneurs and jobcreators rather than jobseekers? CanÕt we harness their talent to settingup technologyled Manufacturing Industry in their neighborhood. Such enterprises would not only create productive lifelong employment in rural India, but obviate the need for social doles which only breed corruption, laziness and beggars. It is only an issue of establishing the right ecosystem. Author has coupled his 40 years of direct and indirect experience in promoting thousands of young Technoentrepreneurs in diverse fields with his recent involvement in Higher Technical Education and effort to reorient it away from rote towards Application. What has emerged in this process is his pioneering concept of sandwiching Technical Education with grooming for Entrepreneurship in the latterhalf of education. Consequent overlap of projectgestation with education period constructively uses the lowrisk years of his life when he has no personal family to establish his enterprise. Close ties of PTUÕs Advanced School of TQM & Entrepreneurship with Top Mgts. of over 500 progressive industries in diverse sectors through 8years of systematic work provide it the strength to organize right Mentors.
