Abstract

This article has been written to generate ideas on how we can increase the valuable combination of qualities, skills and attitudes which I have called entrepreneurial drive. I have used this term because I cannot think of a better one to describe the drive that some people have to create things, the determination that they have to achieve real progress, and the tenacity which is shown by them to change things despite massive opposition. In this article I have put down my ideas on entrepreneurial drive — what it is, why increase it and how it can be increased to generate discussion which will lead to a greater ability in management to get real progress in Industry, Commerce and the public sector of the economy.
