35. • Richard Cantillion's Theory of RISK BEARING
• The word "entrepreneur" has been traced back to Richard Cantillon, an Irish banker with
French roots writing in the early 1700s, before Adam Smith.
• He defined ENTREPRENEUR as an "AGENT".
• Buys Factors of Production at CERTAIN PRICES in order to combine them into a

outcomesin a group is KNOWN.

Need for PERSONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

42. McClelland's
Theory of
Achievement

important factor for entrepreneurs.
Individuals with high achievementorientationare not influenced
by considerations of money or any other external incentives.
Profit and incentives are merely yardsticks of measurementof
success of entrepreneurs with high achievement orientation.
People with high achievement (N-Ach) are not influenced by
money rewards as compared to people with low achievement.

other external incentives.

others and situations.

inter-personal relationship

opportunities.

innovation.
Then, What is Systematic Innovation?
It is, consisting of purposeful and organized search for changes.

46. Peter Druckers's Principle of
Innovations

47. S.No Do's Don't

begins with an analysis

CLEVER
2 Innovation is both conceptual and
practical
Do not diversify

be simple and always focused

PRESENT.

LEADERSHIP

48. Leibenstein’s
X-Efficiency
Theory:
X-efficiency is the degree of "inefficiency in the
use of resources within the firm".
It measures the extent to which the firm fails to
realize its productive potential.
According to Leibenstein,
When an input is not used effectively the
difference between the actual output and the
maximum output attributable to that input is a
measure of the degree of X-efficiency.

49. Leibenstein’s X-
Efficiency Theory
– contd...
X-efficiency arises, either because
the firm’s resources are used in the
wrong way or because they are
wasted, that is, not used at all.
The role of entrepreneur is to
improve the flow of information in
the Market.

50. Leibenstein’s X-
Efficiency Theory

An entrepreneur has to act as GAP FILLER and an INPUT
COMPLETER , if there are imperfections in markets.

Deals with normal business functions like coordinating the
business activities.
