Another look at Entrepreneurs

September21

I was recently named by Catalyst Magazine as a Top 25 Entrepreneur here in the southeast.

I am getting a lot of questions around what it means to be an entrepreneur. And, some recent articles I wrote on Entrepreneurs, Intrapreneurs, and them Corporate Fellas are getting a lot of circulation.

The people at the Wall Street Journal asked me to come up with a good sports analogy in 30 seconds or less… So, even though I favor the elegant game of Lacrosse, I came up with an analogy around Football. It goes something like this…

Kick Returners /1 are Entrepreneurs; Wide Receivers are Intrapreneurs; and, Defensive Units are them Corporate Fellas.

Lets be part of the Solution, not the Problem.

What’s All This About?

"What am I looking at?", you might wonder.

Lots of stuff.

Meanwhile, here, I discuss events, people and things in our world - and, my (hardly simplistic, albeit inarticulate) views around them.

You'll also learn things about, well, things, like people you need to know about, and information about companies you can't find anywhere else.

So, while I harangue the public in my not so gentle way, you will discover that I am fascinated by all things arcane, curious about those whom appear religious, love music, dabble in politics, loathe the media, value education, still think I am an athlete, and might offer a recipe.

All the while, striving mightily, and daily, to remain a prudent and optimistic gentleman - and, authentic.
