Entrepreneurship and Social Networking Skills. Knowledge@Wharton lists links to its current publication on Business Wire. One that caught my eye was—Why Global Business Needs Kinder, Gentler Entrepreneurs and Leaders. Quote from the Business Wire description of this article: Images of entrepreneurs and leaders tend to focus on the vision and guts needed to get ventures off the ground or on the solitary hero leading the crowds. At the recent Lauder Institute Alumni Association Global Business Forum in New York, however, two panels on entrepreneurship and leadership debunked these notions. Speakers at the conference said entrepreneurs need social networking skills as much as business savvy to succeed. As for leaders who want to be effective in global business, they need to learn that arrogance is out, humility is in. [The Social Software Weblog] 9:45:56 PM    comment []
