Entrepreneurial Mindset and Ethics

This document discusses entrepreneurial cognition and risk. It covers several key topics: 1) Entrepreneurial cognition refers to the knowledge structures and mental models that entrepreneurs use to make decisions involving opportunities, evaluation, venture creation, and growth. 2) Entrepreneurs face risks in starting a new business, with greater rewards coming with greater risks. 3) Entrepreneurship involves confronting risks, but entrepreneurs are willing to accept risks for what they believe in and have the ability to cope with ambiguity and lack of consistency in their professional lives.
