Speaker Cameron Herold says that schools should teach kids to be entrepreneurs instead of doctors and lawyers. Lawyers who start their own firms have the best of both worlds.
I do agree with Cameron that MBA programs don’t teach entrepreneurship. Being a business person cannot be taught through a Masters degree. It takes something else – the x-factor as Simon Cowell says.
Definition of entrepreneur: ‘a person who organizes, operates and assumes the risk for a business venture’
Thank you for finding this and sharing! Excellent!!!
As a solo practitioner and entrepreneur, this video was motivational. It would be great for law school administrators to review this as a talking point to change in the curriculum. We should encourage law students and new lawyers to think like entrepreneurs rather than graduate with expectations or feelings of entitlement to salaried positions in law firms.
