What Is Entrepreneurial Leadership?

Entrepreneurial leadership is a skill set and mindset Babson specializes in and infuses into all its academic programs. It’s a way of critical thinking and acting that any professional person can learn to help them succeed in their role now and as their career progresses.

Entrepreneurial leaders solve problems through building resilience and finding adaptable, flexible solutions. They are experts in navigating uncertainty. They aren’t afraid of risks because they know they can act with confidence and knowledge when setbacks occur.

It’s about having an idea and the toolbox to enact that idea. You will learn how to turn problems of all scales into opportunities, while recalibrating and pivoting when the original solution doesn’t work.

The best entrepreneurial leader is good at experimenting, problem solving, learning, and iterating. Think of improv: it’s never no, it’s “yes, and.”
