Intrapreneur – The Evolution of the Young Entrepreneur

What this episode covers

Traditional routes into business are starting to fade. In the next 10 years, millennials will make up 75% of the workforce. What can millennials do to make themselves more employable in tomorrow’s business? They are going to play an important role in business! How do companies engage them and get them excited to work so they stay at a company? Businesses now want intrapreneurs – entrepreneurs within a company. Many millennials don’t know what they want to do, but they know they want to do something fulfilling. They want more than just a job. Millennials want to achieve greatness. They are bold and ballsy. They are not satisfied with just being successful. They want something more. However, they need to build a plan that is going to take them there! About Peter: Peter works with young professionals and entrepreneurs to create plans of action to achieve greatness. Challenged Issue: In this podcast, we challenge the issue of how millennials can understand where they fit in and what they can do in the world of business. Peter’s Actionable Tips: * Understand your value-add. Whose need does it meet? They are exchanging their time for dollars, and that does not work for millennials. Make sure your value-add meets a company’s needs. * Become an intrapreneur. Manage your brand and focus on the parts of your business: P = performance; A = accessible; R = reliability; T = testimonials; and S = scalability. * Uncover your purpose and passions, and then align them with your profession. This is the way to find fulfillment.  Top Quotes: * “This generation is the generation that’s now starting to become the leaders in business.” * “The world, frankly, is your oyster.” * “I had this vision that we, as human beings, are going to need to evolve pretty soon.” * “People want to achieve a little past success.” * “Technology is simply an enabler for passion.” * “We’re a generation that grew up with technology.” * “Life looks very different in our eyes than it does in yours.” * “That’s what the millennials are about – there are just no boundaries.” * “You have to manage your brand as a professional business.” * “Technology has become so infused in our culture.

You are now in business.” * “What lights your heart on fire?” Guest Links: * Powered Life (http://www.thepoweredlife.com) * Peter Yobo International (http://peterfyobo.com/) * Facebook (facebook.com/peteryobo) * Twitter (https://twitter.com/PeterYobo) Resources: * Ryan Jenkins (https://www.excellence-expected.com/episode17a/) * University of Southern California (http://www.usc.edu/) * WordPress (wordpress.com) * Alan Arlt (https://www.excellence-expected.com/episode60) * LinkedIn (linkedin.com) * Daniel J.
