Mindful Entrepreneurship

Starting, running, and exiting a business successfully is about doing several things well and right. From coming up with ideas, employing the best staff, managing the supply chain, managing cash flow, managing relationships, negotiations, keeping promises and everything in between, the entrepreneur has to be aware and deliberate in everything they do. In addition, the 'normal' challenges of entrepreneurship may be eased or compounded by the peculiarities of the environment within which a business is operated.
Mindful Entrepreneurship is about developing the right philosophies necessary for business success as well as sharpening our thought processes and strengthening our capacities for action. To succeed in business, we need to:

• Develop fundamental success philosophies of life and business
• Build the right mindset and attitudes
• Understand what may need to be done in varying situations
• Know what to do in different circumstances
• Do what needs to be done regardless of our convenience or lack of it

Mindful Entrepreneurship is an attempt to contextualise modern business management philosophies and practices in an African environment for the benefit of our people.
