The Entrepreneurial Economy: Converting Change into Opportunity
Innovation and entrepreneurship aren't mysterious gifts of genius or lucky breaks-they're disciplines that can be systematically practiced. While Europe was losing jobs and Japan's growth stagnated between 1965-1985, America created an astonishing 24 million new positions. Where did they come from? Not primarily from Silicon Valley or high tech (which contributed only 5-6 million jobs), but from entrepreneurial companies across all sectors: Walmart revolutionizing retail, FedEx transforming logistics, American Express reinventing financial services. What these diverse enterprises shared wasn't a particular industry but a common approach: entrepreneurial management that systematically identified and exploited opportunities. This explains America's economic resilience during what should have been a period of stagnation. Companies like Xerox and IBM struggled despite their technological prowess because they operated in what Drucker calls the "nineteenth-century mould"-brilliant at invention but poor at systematic innovation. The true revolution wasn't in electronics or genetics but in management itself-the systematic practice of entrepreneurship. This transformation extends beyond business into healthcare, education, and government agencies adopting performance-based approaches. Just as McDonald's applied systematic management to redesign what was previously a "mom-and-pop" operation, creating standardized processes that could be replicated globally while maintaining consistent quality.
