Entrepreneurship is world-building. A young entrepreneur asked me the other day what I thought the world looked like, in an economic sense. The question threw me for a loop; typically, people will ask questions like “How much money can I raise for my venture?” (I shrug) or “How long will it take to grow my business?” (I shrug), or “Do you like my product?” (I shrug), or more pejoratively, “Who the hell are you?” But this question was a damn good one. I paused, then sat on it for a few moments. So I thought some more about what we discussed, and to his initial question, this is what I came back with.
So here’s the premise for the answer to his question (which is really just another open question): change happens whether we want it or not; (re)building the world is a whole other charge. I shouldn’t have to explain everything in the graphic (at least I would hope), but suffice to say that it illustrates how we can build upon tensions between capitalistic norms and democratic norms. So, back to the initial question.
