Book excerpt: An entrepreneur is one of the important segments of economic growth as well as social growth. Basically, an entrepreneur is a person who is responsible for setting up a business or an enterprise in a society for social growth. Infact, he is one who has the initiative, skill for innovation and who looks for high achievements. He is a catalytic agent of change and works for the good of the society. According to Peter F. Ducker “Effective entrepreneurship is not making speeches or being liked; entrepreneurship is defined by results, not attributes.” That means he puts up new Greenfield projects that actually creates wealth, opens up employment opportunities and fosters other sectors. An entrepreneur is one of the most important inputs in the economic development of a country or regions within the country. Entrepreneurship development is getting a position of great importance for tackling ever-growing problem of unemployment due to rapid population growth.
