The Entrepreneurial Actuary’s Different Way of Thinking

Wednesday, April 2, 2014: 2:00 p.m.
Virginia Suite AB (Washington Marriott Wardman Park)
We’ll start with asking & answering questions related to “What is entrepreneurship?” and “Who is an entrepreneur?” Spoiler alert – everyone can be an entrepreneur, regardless of title, employer, career history, and training/education! We’ll also dive deeper into topics related to the Entrepreneurial mindset and Entrepreneurial motivations and behaviors. Within that discussion, particular focus may be directed to the process for identifying opportunities, threats, influences, and disruptive forces within an industry, and how to ascertain who may be best suited to respond to those factors (e.g., entrepreneurs within larger corporate settings, smaller entrepreneurial companies, or entrepreneurs on their own?).
