The Entrepreneurial Arch
  A Strategic Framework for Discovering, Developing and Renewing Firms

 



The Entrepreneurial Arch book cover  The Entrepreneurial Arch offers a fresh approach to entrepreneurship by teaching readers how to discover and create a new firm, or grow an existing one, starting from a firm's or team's capabilities. The core methodology is based on the 'Entrepreneurial Arch' which provides a more holistic view of entrepreneurship by dividing the business development process into six distinct segments. An important feature of this model is the inclusion of learning units focusing on opportunity identification, business design and assessment before the business planning stage is attempted. Illustrated with various real-world examples, this structured and concise book will appeal to students, as well as to practitioners looking to develop their entrepreneurial skills.  (Downloadable PDF book flyer.)

Faley Potrait About the Author:

In 2003, frustrated with the current state of entrepreneurship education the author set out on a ten-year quest to study the methodologies of successful serial entrepreneurs, codify them, and set them in a teachable form. The Entrepreneurial Arch is the result of that quest.  (For more details, download the preface to The Entrepreneurial Arch).
