Nigel Adams commented on Dr Graham Wilson's blog post 'What exactly is an entrepreneur?'
Hi Graham,
I would be very pleased to meet you for a coffee. Perhaps you might also like to visit the University of Buckingham and see what we are doing in the field of entrepreneurship?
I suggest that we commnicate by e-mail, my address…

Hello Nigel
Thanks for taking the time to comment on my blog and for your kind words. Yes, it certainly isn't easy - I'm afraid, succinct though it is, I don't really like the tone of Stevenson's definition -…
Nigel Adams commented on Dr Graham Wilson's blog post 'What exactly is an entrepreneur?'
As you have found, it is not simple to try to define an Entrepreneur. I might even ask, is it worth trying or am I being unfair?
I do, however, think that you have had a "good go at it!" and have addressed the most important factors.
In my…

So many things I could pick up on, but just to focus on one for the moment...
John asked some very relevant questions about the problems (aka otherwise unmet user needs) that the various platforms solve.
I realise that this may seem argumentative,…

Hello Anthony
Yes, now that the era of Victorian do-gooders is over, it seems almost inconceivable that a drug or alcohol counsellor, for example, would not have been an addict themselves at some point. Of course, there are clinical…

Thanks Hilary
I do understand how much effort is involved. I'm glad to hear that the intiative is alive and kicking. Something I have come across elsewhere is that physical networks struggle to embrace modern communication media…

You beat me to it, Matthew! I meant to post something the other evening and then got distracted.
I totally see why this is relevant to coaching as it is practiced. The first question though, that it raises for me, is around the ethics…
Hilary Lane replied to Dr Graham Wilson's discussion 'Is this group still live?' in the group Coaching & Mentoring Initiative
Hi Matthew, I think he sends to those who have attended, but I can't be certain. Send me a message directly via RSA fellows and I'll help if I can.

Matthew Kálmán Mezey replied to Dr Graham Wilson's discussion 'Is this group still live?' in the group Coaching & Mentoring Initiative
Hi Hilary,
Does Anthony send out e-mails to all the people who have expressed an interest in the coaches' lunches?
I signed up to receive e-mail at the beginning of October - and I don't think I've had one since then.
Did I miss…
Hilary Lane replied to Dr Graham Wilson's discussion 'Is this group still live?' in the group Coaching & Mentoring Initiative
Hi Graham
Anthony works tirelessly to negotiate premises, facilities and dates for the lunches and as Matthew rightly ponts out, there is stuff in the pipeline. You should be able to contact Anthony directly through the RSA (Anthony Eldridge-Rogers)…

What exactly is an entrepreneur?
I've been doing a lot of work around the nature of entrepreneurism lately, and thought it might be a worthwhile topic to explore with a wider group of people too.Mention the term 'entrepreneur' to the public and you'll get very different definitions. Probably because of programmes like the Dragon's Den, many people actually confuse the individual with an idea with the investor providing the money to make it happen. Most will also assume that the term was an invention of the 1990s.It was…See More

Thanks Matthew.
I do know what a struggle it can be to get groups going. This one looked as though it had been around for a while so it's reassuring to know that it's still on the boil.
Cheers

Quiet: the power of introverts in a world that can’t stop talking
