Founder & Managing Partner

“EACH DAY IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO LIVE OUR PURPOSEMAKE A DIFFERENCE IN PEOPLE’S LIVES AND CAREERS AND DRIVE RESPECT AND EQUALITY FOR ALL”- SONICA ARON

The company that started its operations as a one-woman show today thrives as a pioneer in the panorama of HR advisory services in India and globally. In the course of 10 years, they have encompassed major industry players and innovative startups as partners and clients. Over the course of Marching Sheep’s journey, the firm has become a leading HR name worldwide, having worked in over 80 nations across the globe.Marching Sheep invests in substantial research and non-profit campaigns in addition to working with clients. In order to understand what clients and today’s workforce need to stay relevant and meaningful, they do research involving significant industry outreach, panel talks with CHROs of top organisations on pertinent issues, and pulse polls.

Their on-ground awareness campaign, Marching with Pride, saw the team engaging with people from the LGBTQIA community in candid conversations about life, growing up, challenges, inclusion at work and much more. Another campaign, 21Marching contributed to raising awareness of the 21 disabilities recognised under the 2016 Rights for Persons with Disabilities Act.

Service Portfolio Highlights

• Diversity & Inclusion Strategies and interventions: They support their client organisations in developing their diversity charter and strategy through diversity diagnostic and executable plans, and also partner with the execution, drive mindset change, and culture building. They believe that inclusive organisations are more productive. Today, organisations are talking about the inclusion of the LGBTQIA community, individuals with disabilities, multigenerational workforces, racial and cultural diversity, indigenous peoples, and other groups in addition to women, expanding the definition of diversity.

• Human Resource Consulting: Organizations need their HR strategy, process, and policies to enable employees to deliver on the business strategy and goals. The Marching Sheep team collaborates closely with client organisations to streamline the vision, mission, values, behavioural frameworks, HR strategy, policies, and practices, drive

communication and socialisation and develop internal leadership and managerial aptitude.

The Marching Sheep team works with clients to develop the appropriate abilities that will help managers, leaders, and individual contributors succeed. Through the facilitation of insights, reflection, and practice, they craft each intervention to promote the desired behaviours.

• Health & Wellness Portfolio: Today, wellness comprises of one’s mental, emotional, and physical health.

With programs curated after research and with the help of clinical psychologists, Marching Sheep enables individuals to become emotionally resilient by identifying their own stress triggers, their own stress responses, and coping mechanisms and hence more productive, personally, and professionally.

What Is the Differentiating Factor for Marching Sheep

Being a consultative service provider, Marching Sheep takes pride in the fact that they do not have canned products or services.

Every solution or intervention offered is curated after an extensive diagnostic and engagement with the client team to understand the real need or problem statement. This ensures high-impact solutions and outcomes. Second, they are not merely trainers but HR experts who have discovered a passion for directly benefiting client organisations. They are living out this enthusiasm through their work at Marching Sheep.

Thirdly, Marching Sheep does not just consult, they also help in the implementation, and all the assignments are KPI linked. They truly help clients move the needle.

The Key Motivation behind the Conceptualization

Sonica always thought of herself to be the most risk-averse person. Business growth and networking were not something that Sonica enjoyed because of her introversion. But as she moved through various stages of her career and personal life, she came to the conclusion over time that what truly made her happy was making a difference. A significant difference took place when she took a sabbatical in 2012. She was at that time heading HR for Philips Consumer lifestyle business. When a mother of two needed to return to work after a year, she realised the need to have efficient HR policies and processes, an aligned, motivated staff, and strategic HR business partnering roles after working in industries such as FMCG, FMCD, telecom, and healthcare for more than a decade. Having been a woman professional, she had also seen the evolving narrative of diversity and inclusion and the gaps in the industry closely. Armed with these insights and experience, it was but natural for her to establish Marching Sheep with service lines in these areas.

A Glimpse of Industry Evolutions in HR HR processes are evolving with the evolving business landscape and evolving workforce expectations and needs. There has been

a considerable change in the work in massive past three years old. All aspects of the HR process, from recruiting top talent to keeping them engaged, rewarding them, and developing and nurturing them, all need to be viewed from multiple lenses- from the lens of the employee, from the lens of business sustainability, from the lens of simplicity, accessibility, inclusion, and efficacy. Long drawn, tedious, bureaucratic processes and giving way to simpler processes. There is more transparency.

Jewels in the Crown

Traversing the path of success, Sonica Aron and the firm have won several accolades in the journey for their strict adherence to innovation and excellence. To name a few: –

• Forbes India has ranked Sonica Aron among the top 10 female business owners for 2020.

• She was honoured by Forbes India in 2021 as one of the “India’s Most Valued people.”She has been recognised as an “Inspirational Icon in Leadership” by Fortune in 2021.

• She has been named among the “Top 100 digital influencers” by Yourstory.

• She has been listed by Business Today in 2021 as “Most Inspirational Women Leaders in India”

• Most recently, Sonica has been recognised as “The Woman Entrepreneur of The Year” by the Indian Achievers Forum at 75th Atmanirbhar Bharat Summit in 2022.

“We take satisfaction in staying together as a team and surviving the challenging year of COVID. No one in Marching Sheep was laid off or sent on furlough. No salaries were reduced. We worked very hard during the year, but it was worthwhile. This has been our biggest achievement. Not only did we win each other’s trust, but of the industry and our clients,” Sonica Aron further shared on being asked what the most significant achievement for her has been.

Diversity and Inclusion Strategies

“Diversity is a fact; inclusion is a choice, and allyship is action!” – Sonica Aron

Every day, every moment, people in the world have a choice that they can exercise. By raising awareness, streamlining policies and HR procedures, fostering managerial and leadership abilities, building transparent and effective communication platforms, and doing so much more, the team supports people in exercising that decision. Inclusion is a journey, and organizations require a consistent 360o approach. Organisations can change the direction of their journey toward their goals by using a disciplined, step-bystep framework that starts with diagnostics and ends with monitoring impact.

Marching Sheep’s High-impact ROI-based Interventions

Employees today want to work with companies that are mission-driven and offer a nurturing environment for learning and development. Instead of mandatory training schedules and coerced nominations, they choose meaningful learning programmes that advance their professional objectives. Organisations will need to adopt a fresh perspective while examining the learning frameworks.

Technology and e-learning modules are amazing, but do they actually change behaviour or are they just a box to check? There will be some challenging questions to ask and address.

Second, it will be crucial to find and keep vital and top talent in the era of great resignation, quick quitting, and quiet resigning, where employee retention, employer attractiveness, and employee engagement will be crucial. Organisations will need to devote time and effort to finding and developing these individuals. Some of the solutions and capacities that organisations will need to consider are assessment centres, development centres, continuing feedback, constructive feedback, and developmental feedback.

One size fits all approaches to policies and HR practices are no longer valid. Organisations will be forced to take a close look at their policies and make them more contemporary and relevant to meet the needs of their people as a result of a workforce that spans several generations, a variety of working arrangements, including remote, hybrid, and work from anywhere, evolving mindsets, and growing irreverence toward stereotypical norms. Stay interviews are a highimpact, long-lasting method of addressing employees’ needs by listening to them, comprehending what they genuinely need, and then meeting those needs in an organised way.

The Key Driving Force behind Marching Sheep’s Exponential Growth Integrity is the core value of Marching Sheep. They only take assignments within the ambit of their expertise and work closely with the client team to arrive at the project’s scope, deliverables, and milestones. To be able to provide high-impact treatments for the customers, they, as a team, also continuously educate themselves on new concepts and trends. Multiple consultants are hired for every task to prevent errors and make use of their combined knowledge. Instead of promoting pre-packaged solutions, they work with clients to develop tailored interventions and execute ROI-driven programmes.

We are still in a very early stage, Sonica continued. So much work still has to be done. Not simply as a business but also in the field of diversity, equity, and inclusion. We anticipate putting forth more effort, developing more quickly, and interacting with more businesses and people.

The Open Work Culture at Marching Sheep

They are a close-knit team consisting of 5 members. There are no hierarchies, and they work collaboratively. While they all have the roles defined, that is only 70% of their overall operation. The rest 30% get involved in special projects like the international women’s day campaign, the Marching with Pride campaign or the 21Marching campaign. That ensures that everyone has the opportunity to learn outside of their regular occupations and support one another.

Sonica’s Insights on Success

Success means different things to different people. At Marching Sheep, we experience success in many little ways. Learning something new every day is a success!

When a client comes back for more work with new assignments, it is a success because it means we made an impact.

When a participant who attended a session sometime back calls to thank or invite to their wedding, it is a success. When clients treat you as partners and friends, it is a success.

Flagships Developed Out of R&D

As a consulting organisation, Marching Sheep has to evolve with the evolving times. They connect with the industry extensively and develop a wide range of curated interventions according to the customer’s requirements.

Additionally, they have observed the evolving role of HR as strategic partners in business recovery, continuity, and growth. They have created a strategic HR business partnering certification that is based on action learning, and they have successfully organised seminars in collaboration with the FICCI Quality Forum that HR professionals from various firms have attended. Similar to this, they have introduced the most comprehensive DEI certification in the nation in collaboration with FICCI in light of the growing emphasis on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging across sectors.

Giving Back to the Community

In addition to the non-commercial campaigns that the company runs each year, they do work on a small scale with acid attack survivors.

They support an NGO, Brave Souls foundation, where the team contributes every month to the education of the resident acid attack survivors.

They are also very dedicated about helping transgender people get jobs, and they do everything in their power to connect customers with prospects from the Tweet Foundation.

They do not do this because of any compulsion or any act. They do this because they firmly believe in making a difference. They will have succeeded if their support and contribution enable even one acid attack survivor to achieve financial independence. If their efforts help even one transgender person get a job, this person can further help four more transgender persons, and the virtuous cycle begins.

A Pioneer in the Landscape of Prefabricated Buildings , Prefabulous Homez is Crafting Affordable & Sustainable Spaces

The future belongs to those who embrace new technology. Our featured company, Prefabulous Homez LLP, has been spearheading the move to Prefabricated Structures for style-conscious people who are also looking for an affordable and sustainable way to build their space.

Under the excellent direction of Ruksanaa Shaik and Shaakeer Hussain Mohammed, Designated Partners of the company, the specialist Professionals at the Prefabulous Homez have pioneered the concept . From fancy commercial buildings to budget-friendly residential spaces, the team has honed their skills, mastered the processes, and listened to what people want, how they live, and what makes a space special. All this knowledge and confidence is reflected in the designs and the prefab buildings built by them.

Puja | Business Connect

The story of Prefabulous Homez goes years back in 1998 and its origins are decades old. The family has been involved in this business for more than 22 years; they were catering prefab buildings only for industrial and commercial projects.

MR.SHAAKEER’S TAKE ON THE SIGNIFICANCE OF R&D BEHIND THE GROWTH

We have been conducting R&D for the past 20 years, but people are initially hesitant to adopt our technology due to a lack of confidence. For the past 25 years, prefab technologies have been used in India, but people were hesitant to use them. We have conducted research and development throughout the years to determine how we may use strength and durability for various applications and objectives. Over time, we have created standard operating procedures for the sector’s primary issues, such as waterproofing, speeding up construction, and improving durability. Whatever materials are introduced to the market, we continue to innovate with them. We aim to incorporate that technology and approach into our procedures. Overall, R&D aids in our ability to offer clients services in the Prefab construction sector.

How WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS are overcoming the start-up challenge

There was a time when women were known as a housewife. Later, somehow women started working outside as less paid employees. At the time, entrepreneurship among them was like looking water on the marks. It was very exceptional. Also, in the 1900s it was very hard to do business. Then comes the IT era, the internet has changed the business landscape very quickly. the way we are selling products, services, and innovative ideas. it cannot be that easy without the internet. We should really thank the internet.

In the middle of the present decades, digitalization transformation has increased so rapidly and become so common across the industries. By getting digitalization transformation, start-up culture has been catalyzed all over the world. 2017 report from American Express, it has shown that over the past 20 years, the majority of the women who owned businesses has increased by 114%. It is more than 2.5 times has seen national growth.

As you know that every start-up faces some problems and challenges in the initial state. So, if women are facing it, this is no exception at all. Yet, there are a lot of hindrances relatively to women entrepreneurs. And they are overcoming them, here are more common challenges they have been facing and overcoming.

TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE CHANGES IN THE SYSTEM

Nowadays people have made a start-up culture around the world which is good for the country. A new successful start-up doesn’t just help you to enhance countries’ GDP but also at the same time, it’s empowering women entrepreneurs and gathering them good business options in both ways (physical and virtual landscape). According to Forbes, recently 3 percent SME (SMALL BUSINESS SIZE) has owned by women entrepreneurs.

Also, I was reading the Forbes article where it has mentioned that the government has made an announcement and launched an online portal that helps you to sanction loans up to one crore. It is really helpful for a start-up; in this, you can get over from financial challenges. Besides, in the digital ear, they are able to sell their products with the help of e-commerce. Also, having shopping apps are helping them grow. Now they don’t need a big investor to start a company. They don’t require posh office space to perform the things as well. All they need, a laptop and a smartphone. With the help of these things, they are handling all demands.

EMPHASIZING TEAMWORK OVER INDIVIDUALISM

CURBING CHALLENGES THROUGH EFFECTIVENESS

Having great interpersonal skills, it helps you to convince people (inside, outside, and both of them) that is good for the organization. Being emotionally balanced and having soft skills, businesswomen have ability to convinces the client to fix the deal. Actually, they are growing rapidly with the help of these skills. To achieve business growth and find the right track, Team should start cooperating with the leader and distributer to deliver the exact requirement.

A business requires two valuable assets first people and second creative ideas. by having a knack of leading people in women entrepreneurs, hindrance will never touch them. Also, every entrepreneur should have great communication skills.

Sometimes we make an unhealthy decision to lead the company. however, in this way, you will have unnecessary collateral damage and will lose energy. Cooperation is a very essential thing that will help you reduce fear. Nowadays women entrepreneurs are growing so fast by emphasizing teamwork. Everyone requires leadership skills. Women do like to focus on it, they know that cooperation is a great principle than others. This is why they are working together. I think women entrepreneurs agree on these quotes.

LOOKING AT THE WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF OTHER PEOPLE

If you don’t consider wisely actual flaws in your plan, you get caught up in your own idea. women entrepreneurs think very differently, they step back

“A team is not a group of people who work together, a team is a group of people who trust each other.” Simon Sinek

first, then get a fresh perspective. According to the situation, they are doing everything to expand the narrow idea. also, you should know that showing yourself what you can do like a new challenge, idea, and many creative things in front of new people, in this way you can engage with people and see the real problems. Women entrepreneurs believe that more if they more integrate or learn, they will evolve and grow more.

“If

BE RESPECTFUL TOWARD OTHERS

Business grows when you have a good transaction with other people. Having a respective nature will bring you more customers. Suppose that you are doing business where people don’t go and don’t like to work with you, because of abusive nature. What is going to happen with your business eventually, I’m sure businesses won’t run for a long time. However, women entrepreneurs have taken these things so seriously. They treat others with full of respect. Because they know in the way to keep up the businesses for a long time.

“Respect is the most important thing. be respectful toward others and have respect for yourself.”

SHOWING UP SIMPLY

We know that entrepreneur life is full of adventure when you are passing the path that you have created; you never know what’s going to happen next. When things get tough, it is very tough to stay in the field. However, nowadays women entrepreneurs are becoming strong to take intuitive ideas. they know that running away isn’t the solution. They have to fight until getting success. Also, as entrepreneurs, we should keep in mind that issues do not identify that things are going wrong. It means you are moving forward and you need a big source to grow.

you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” Wayne dyer

Patil

A Glimpse of Sceptertech Digital and its Inception

Sceptertech Digital was envisioned to offer high-quality, reliable, value-added content solutions, establish a community of tech lovers, and establish themselves as industry leaders in B2B communication. They provide a range of services to the customers, such as marketing and content development. Services in media relations, public relations, and social media marketing and branding transformation

Talking about the core motivation behind the inception of Sceptertech, Pooja Rohan Patil stated, –

“I’ve worked in marketing and corporate communication for over a decade and have managed several vendors. Being in a technological company requires the development of technical information that the readers can also understand. This major gap became my primary source of inspiration, and I was lucky to realise this while managing corporate communication for an Austrian MNC in Industrial Automation. The majority of B2B enterprises, whether they are focused on providing products, solutions, or services, all confront similar challenges despite having access to highly skilled technical personnel. Organisations faced a monumental burden when it comes to converting it into marketing and content. With my technical expertise and experience, I was confident I could capitalise on this market and create a successful business to provide these services.”

The primary goal of Sceptertech is to provide best-in-class service to clients. Pooja aims to break down complex, difficult-to-understand technical data in any organisation into easily understandable content. She is highly focused on making the generated content relatable, which makes it easier to understand. Until today, she has been immensely successful in creating such content.

The Exclusive Content Development Strategies at Sceptertech

Content is not rocket science. It is not difficult to create content. It lays a solid basis for a company’s growth and success if done correctly and in an organised manner. The end user comes first, followed by market demands and needs, and then products, solutions, or services. As a result, the consumer is constantly the problem. All sectors, including sales, service, support, marketing, and content, are affected by this. A company can succeed when the user or client takes centre stage and becomes the focus of everything. You may have read or heard, “Don’t sell the product; sell the problem you solve.”

Insight on Social Media Management

The success of every social media management is determined by strategy. Before anything else, the team at Sceptertech meet with their clients to learn more about their needs and objectives, whether those be to increase brand recognition, develop devoted fans, or produce higherquality sales leads. To create a well-informed plan of action outlining what they want to post, when they want to post it, what platform they will use, and how much of people’s budget they recommend spending to promote it, they first conduct extensive research on everything from current trends to competitor strategies to the social media habits of the client’s audience. To make sure that everyone is on the

same page and that our strategy fits in perfectly with all of the client’s needs, they collect all that information and give it to the customer in a monthly content calendar.

Pooja’s Take on Women Participation in Entrepreneurship

Because entrepreneurship is the foundation of any nation’s economy, regardless of gender, it is necessary to start the process of economic development in both established and developing nations. In this era of globalisation, digitisation, and start-up booms, women entrepreneurs are changing in India. Today’s female entrepreneurs come from all backgrounds and regions of the nation, not simply from well-established business families or the wealthier sections of society. In recent decades, there has been a significant improvement in the roles that women play in society. Women now hold once macho corporate jobs and sometimes outperform their male coworkers. Gender prejudices that were widespread in society decades ago are gradually disintegrating.

The Source of Inspiration

Pooja’s father has been a role model for her throughout her life and has helped her grow as a person. Her father helped Pooja grasp the corporate world, which is generally seen to be dominated by men.

“I am grateful for my family’s support and for the people who have placed their faith in me during my career. Throughout my life and work, I have been fortunate to be supported by incredible mentors, both men and women, who have motivated me to take on new challenges well beyond my wildest dreams. Mr Sivaram, who was my boss in my earlier organisation, taught me the importance of collaboration, which is lifelong learning. My husband has pushed me the most to take up new challenges in life. I will always be grateful for all the people in my life” ,Pooja Patil further apprised.

Technological Evolutions in the Advertising Space

The foundation of contemporary B2B marketing strategies is technology. This covers everything from artificial intelligence-powered programming to instant survey tools and automated emails. Sceptertech’s clients are able to reach a broader audience in a highly distinctive and tailored way thanks to these solutions. This aids results and engagement. They make use of technologies for SEO, paid search, content marketing, social media marketing, and email marketing.

Milestones on the Way

Pooja is proud to share that her organisation has grown exponentially since its inception, and she is overwhelmed to say that her corporation is a trusted partner for many Indian and European companies. Owing to their ideology and quality, Sceptertech is an extended department for clients.

VEGETARIAN PROTEIN SOURCES YOU CAN USE TO BUILD MUSCLE

Planning a vegetarian diet can sometimes be challenging, especially when you’re trying to get sufficient protein to maintain muscle. That’s why we’ve put together here to help you provide some guidance on the best veg protein foods for muscle gain in English language. We’ll provide some key information you need to know about these sources, and offer a few delicious meal ideas for getting the most out of your vegetarian diet. So, read on to find out how to stay healthy and build muscle without relying on animal-based proteins!

Why are proteins important for muscle building?

Proteins are essential for muscle building as they are the building blocks of life. They provide the body with amino acids that are necessary for constructing proteins and other molecules, such as enzymes and hormones. Muscles use proteins to grow in size, strength, endurance and power.

When you engage in physical activity (e.g weight lifting) your muscles break down due to micro-tearing which triggers a repair process where protein is used to build new muscle tissue. Eating adequate amounts of protein helps ensure that there is enough raw material available for this repair process so that your muscles can develop properly over time, allowing you to gain more strength and size from your workouts.

Protein also helps regulate metabolic processes within the body such as maintaining blood sugar levels while providing energy when needed; all of which help support growth and development during exercise - especially during long or intense sessions like those seen in bodybuilding or powerlifting competitions. Not only does it help create an anabolic environ-

ment but it also slows down metabolism which is essential for maintaining lean muscle mass even when calories are restricted - something commonly seen amongst athletes preparing for competitions or shows!

If you’re looking to build muscle on a vegetarian or vegan diet, be sure to include plenty of high-protein foods like vegan protein powder in your diet. In addition to providing the necessary amino acids for muscle growth, vegan protein powder can also help you meet your daily calorie needs.

Nutrition tips for muscle gain as a vegan

For vegans looking to build muscle, nutrition is a key factor. Eating an array of plant-based foods like legumes, nuts, seeds and whole grains can help provide the protein needed for muscle growth. It’s also important to make sure you’re getting enough healthy fats from sources like avocados and olive oil. These fats will not only provide your body with energy but also allow for better absorption of certain vitamins and minerals that support muscle gain such as zinc, iron and vitamin B12. Additionally, eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables provides essential vitamins and minerals that are necessary for optimal performance in the gym. Also, be sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day as it helps keep muscles functioning optimally during exercise.

Conclusion

Overall, vegetarian protein sources are a great way to build muscle. They provide essential nutrients for muscle growth and repair without any of the saturated fats or cholesterol found in animal proteins. Legumes, nuts, seeds, grains, dairy products and soy products are all excellent sources of vegetarian protein that can be incorporated into your diet to help you reach your fitness goals. Additionally, these foods contain healthful levels of vitamins and minerals that will support overall health and well-being. Finally, by eating a variety of plant-based proteins throughout the day you can ensure adequate intake so as to meet your daily nutritional needs.

The 10 Traits That Define

Entrepreneurial Success

The life of an entrepreneur is far from smooth sailing. As the lone wolves of the business world, the successful entrepreneur knows that whilst their company is their life, the biggest asset they will ever have is themselves; in this scenario, it’s hard not to let the success or failure of your venture define you.

Above all discussion, it takes shrewd of business sense and a keen talent for spinning plates, to transform a concept into a functional, and above all else the best profitable business. Whilst a certain natural proclivity for hard work will take you far, there are five key traits that have the potential to tighten your grip on entrepreneurial success.

However, there are some expert examples mentioned below:-

2. Clear Focus

Although there’s a lot of risks involved in starting off a business, a successful entrepreneur never loses his clear focus. They are constantly aware of all possibilities and their outcomes of actions. They take all factors into consideration and align their business goals properly. When you’re focused on clear goals, even failure makes sense. You simply understand its part of the process.

3. Flexibility

5. Writing

Bill Gates and Richard Branso… most of the well-known successful entrepreneurs have written books. Not because these books bring them more money, but because these bring them more authority. When you make a business successful, you’ll need to consider that sharing the journey of you, through a book is always worthy.

6. Reactiveness

A great entrepreneur doesn’t have time or space for missing the submission deadline. They are making proactive decisions by the minute without delaying. If you can’t make decisions quickly and recognize all the opportunities you should seize at the moment, you should start practicing that skill, with no delays.

7. Marketing Mindset

If you analyze the personality traits of all great entrepreneurs, you’ll notice they have an impressive ability to sell. It doesn’t matter whether they are introverts or extroverts; they are always full of ideas and they know how to sell them.

When you want to hire the best people in your company, you’ll be selling its organizational culture and values.

9. Challenging the Status Quo

When an entrepreneur becomes successful, they don’t stop there. For Entrepreneurs, getting on the path of least minimum resistance is never proven the right option. Entrepreneurs are progressive. They always observe the current point and think about how they can take things further. They challenge the way things have been done and they constantly get outside the comfort zone.

How can it be possible to be an Entrepreneur, without risk? Can you tell me the name of any single successful entrepreneur, who always plays it safe? Probably there is not any. Every entrepreneur follows a basic term which needs that risk-taking mindset. The sole act of starting a business is started with a risk. No one knows how things will turn out, but when you have the proper courage, then only you take the risk.

This personal trait may seem contra dictory to the previous one, but it’s not. After all, an entrepreneur is always focused on their goals, they still adapt to the given situation. They start with a clear vision of a final product or service, but the end result is rarely identical to the one they imagined. A better entrepreneur is always flexible enough to respond to changing market conditions and customer preferences.

8. Self-Confidence

Have you ever noticed Steve Jobs doubting about his company’s success? An entrepreneur has to be crazy enough for being confident in the products or services they are selling. When they come across obstacles, they will need that confidence to come up with proper solutions and examples for the future.

4. Money-Making Mindset

To be a successful entrepreneur all you have to learn is, how money works. There is a huge difference between an innovator/inventor and an entrepreneur. The innovator just wants to think of something new. If they don’t have a money-making mindset, they won’t get an innovative concept to success. The entrepreneur is focused on using innovations for making money.

10. Resilience

Look, if you’re going to build a successful company, you’ll need to stand up to countless challenges. You’re going to make mistakes, and you’ll have to learn from them. Sometimes the market conditions will change and you won’t be prepared for them. You might get knocked down by the competition, and you’ll have to stand up on your own two feet, over and over again.

As it turns, not everyone can be a successful business owner. The good news is that you can work on these character traits and develop them with time and effort. Today is the best day to start! Explore a few online courses, evaluate your strengths and weaknesses, and make a plan that will lead you to success.

“The role personality traits play as drivers of success in entrepreneurial endeavors is paramount for many.”
