Africa and Entrepreneurial Drive
Entrepreneurial Career Choice
Several major career development theorists have contributed to the literature on careers. Dyer’s (1994) Model of Entrepreneurial Careers and the Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) developed by Lent, Brown, and Hackett (1994) are two of the most accepted and validated models in the career literature. Dyer’s Model of Entrepreneurial Careers explores four components of the theory of entrepreneurial careers, such as career selection, career socialization, career orientation, and career development (Dyer, 1994).
Entrepreneur and Mentor: Tandem for Operational Innovation
According to our model, entrepreneurial career choice can be influenced by individual factors such as “mentorship”, entrepreneurial attitudes, social factors such as role models, and economic factors such as availability of a resource network, economic resources, and believe in innovation.
The idea of infusing entrepreneurship into education has spurred much enthusiasm in the last few decades. A myriad of effects has been stated to result from this, such as economic growth, job creation, and increased societal resilience, but also individual growth, increased school engagement, and improved equality. Putting this idea into practice has however posed significant challenges alongside the stated positive effects. Lack of time and resources, teachers’ fear of commercialism, impeding educational structures, assessment difficulties, and lack of definition clarity are some of the challenges practitioners have encountered when trying to infuse entrepreneurship into education.
The Certificate of Entrepreneurship Program at the AIEA aims to prepare creative practitioners and entrepreneurial-minded innovators to become valuable contributors to the fields of business, economics, culture, and community at large. Entrepreneurs combine creative, cultural, social, and entrepreneurial spirit to forward innovation goals that invest in communities while solving problems with market-based approaches for the greater good.

The Entrepreneurial Program Advantage at the American Institute of Entrepreneurship in Africa
Selecting and Developing the Business Case
The key task behind planning and assessment of an entrepreneurial motive and idea is developing an understanding of the organization to be assessed through an analysis of the following steps that evaluate the business case.
The Entrepreneurial Management Process
Entrepreneurial Drive
Understand how to educate Entrepreneurs and Business Leaders on the realistic impacts of identified aspects of the SWOT approach, presenting potential strategies to mitigate those impacts, then enacting the option chosen by the business in line with accepted levels of business risk tolerance.
NEXT LEVEL – CRITICAL THINKING
Critical thinking is so often a forgotten aspect of the risk analysis and assessment process, yet it is fundamental to risk analysis and assessment. Understanding how to formulate a question, knowing what you’re looking for, and how that information is applied is indispensable to this process of risk assessment. By exploring other points of view and understanding other perspectives, you learn more about the subject, can reflect on the information you have, and how you feel.
Identification of Entrepreneurial Drive Through Critical Thinking / SWOT
Learn to identify and characterize the organization’s assets in the context of critical thinking – the basis for all good analysis. This is the foundation for criticality and consequence analysis as well as for a majority of probability analysis, vulnerability analysis, and risk analysis itself that can be conducted through the SWOT Approach.
Comprehending the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats is the first step in Entrepreneurial Assessment.
Analyzing the Strengths and Opportunities
The scope should define the processes, functions, activities, physical boundaries (facilities and locations), and stakeholders within the boundaries of the risk assessment program.
- What is the scope of the entrepreneurial project as defined by the planning process?
- Is it meeting the entrepreneurial’s objectives one of the strengths?
- Does the planning process consider the context of the organization, its needs, and requirements?
- Learn how to match the scope to the resources available to reach the next level of implementation.
Treatment of the Weaknesses and Threats
Weaknesses and Threats are rating scales that are defined concerning an entrepreneur’s objectives and scope. They are typically measured in terms of impact and occurrence. Impact scales of Weaknesses and Threats should translate the units of measure used for organizational objectives, which may reflect different types of impact such as financial, competition, and/or management of products, services, human resources, and customer/client relationships.
ENTREPRENEURSHIP and CHANGE MANAGEMENT
Managing the change process by example of leadership and reallocating human resources and competencies for adequate productivity, teamwork, discipline, accountability, and reaching the same goals while sharing the same benefits with equity and responsibility.
