THE INTERVIEW

Q:   Who according to you is an entrepreneur? How do you define Entrepreneurship?

Ans: A person who has vision to start a business and feel it comfortable to be in that stream must have an unwavering passion, commitment and dedication towards his business. They must have desire to be an expert, a forward looking approach and a constant flow of ideas.

Q: What are the difficulties faced by young entrepreneurs?

Ans: There are various difficulties and various circumstances like overestimating success, negative thinking, poor organization and lack of mental support. But you have to face the hardships and build the confidence with working on the concept of “win-win”.

Q: Is money the only thing important for a young entrepreneur?

Ans: Sometimes, for a young entrepreneur, money plays an important role regarding initialization of his/her business. But I suggest a young entrepreneur to focus on 3-S

(1)Structure

(2)Self sustenance

(3)Skills

Other than that, if you have good vision, you will easily get funds through governmental as well as non-governmental organizations.

Q: You are a HR manager by profession but more than that you are an author. Which is your favourite one and why?

Ans: Imparting entrepreneurial skills in youth and motivating them is more interesting than being a HR manager. I enjoy arranging workshops, helping beginners and provide them a platform to enhance their talent in this field.

Q: Who inspired you for this profession?

Ans: Actually, my elder brother is my role model. He is also an entrepreneur but more than that when I see poor children, I feel the need to get them educated and imparting entrepreneurial skills in them.

Q: How was your visit at ABV-IIITM?

Ans: It was quite good. I feel that the environment here is good for the budding entrepreneurs. The students were very keen and focused to learn new things. The campus is awesome. I expect many successful entrepreneurs from the institute in future.
