Since I seem to be in a certain groove lately, here’s just one more post on entrepreneurship, self-employment and the “free” -lance life…
John Koten, Editor in Chief of Inc magazine, says there’s a deep-rooted hunger to be an entrepreneur… and to apply creativity to business. Koten called these urges key factors in our economy today. A wide range of people see themselves as entrepreneurs — everyone from Martha Stewart to Snoop Dog to college kids to retiring Baby Boomers. Koten predicts a rise of the entreneurial class in America. “Entrepreneurship is a huge underexpressed force,” he says, even in large companies.
Anita Campbell of Small Business Trends was in the Cleveland City Club audience when Koten made his remarks. She has a link to an mp3 podcast of the event. Worth checking out.
