Entrepreneurs as Employees
There have been several articles recently about the growing focus on "entrepreneurial skills" in hiring managers for larger businesses. Clearly this will require some rather drastic changes in culture for many corporations.
In the Nashville City Paper, M.B. Owens writes a column that reinforces this trend in recruitment.
"The result for new jobs will be towards more highly skilled, highly trained and well-educated employees. But another characteristic will mean even more than in the past for the world's greatest economy - creativity....Workers and employees that contribute to this approach will be in high demand now and in the future. In their jobs these people work more with ideas and better ways of doing things."
(Thanks to Jennie Bowman for passing this along.)
