Written Assignment - Article Review

Please read the following article from the ESC Library. This article is an excellent example that there is no one type of individual who becomes an entrepreneur.  Additionally, this article shows that an opportunity may present itself to you, the entrepreneur, at a time that may seem less than ideal, and even the opportunity itself may seem out of the ordinary, but the results of seizing the opportunity may surprise you - and everyone else.

Whalen, J. (2005, Oct 17). Theory & practice: Chance turns a teacher into a CEO; religion lecturer leaves academic path and learns to run a biotech start-up. Wall Street Journal.

 

After reading this article, prepare a 1-2 page essay that addresses the following questions:

1. What do you think would be the biggest limitations for an academic moving into the CEO position of an entrepreneurial firm?
2. Why did Ms. Drakeman need to learn to delegate if she wanted her company to grow?
3. What were several of the things Ms. Drakeman did right in transition from an academic career to her CEO role?

Make sure you cite any referenced resources correctly and appropriately: How to cite using APA format.
