DePaul University Entrepreneurship Research Paper

RESEARCH PAPER MUST BE MINIMUM 6 PAGES LONG

My topic for the paper:

“My interests in entrepreneurship are very strong after working for Hostly as an Operations/Finance intern. As I’ve grown with the company these past several weeks, I am interested specifically in Operations management and overseeing the day-to-day operations of a company. To me, this is where the magic happens. While most of the company’s success comes from high-level strategic planning, I find that the daily operations can really put a company ahead in terms of performance when compared to its competitors. When and if I take part in starting my own company as an early-career entrepreneur, it is vital to understand the risks that are going to be taken especially since operations are a very critical component of any business. Dean Sheperd and Holger Patzelt both mention how integral it is to incorporate operations research prior to unearthing an opportunity and recognizing its value as an entrepreneur (Sheperd, Patzelt, 2011). Operations research is a critical piece of the puzzle when attempting to start a business or company and proper research can advance entrepreneurship heavily. This is an area of focus that I will be researching for my final paper.”
