The most important skills entrepreneurs need that listed in different sources. Here are some of them. 

Herrity, J. (2022). A Guide to Entrepreneurial Skills: Definition and Examples. (23.3.2023).

 

Tarver, E. (2022).  5 Skills Every Entrepreneur Should Have. Investopedia. (23.3.2023). 

Key takeways according Tarver (2022, i.a.) are:

Entrepreneurship can be quite rewarding, but also comes with several unique risks.

To mitigate the risk of financial loss or failure, it serves a business owner to have a certain set of skills.

A great entrepreneur must be able to effectively communicate, sell, focus, learn, and strategize.

An ability to continuously learn is not just a key entrepreneurial skill, but also a very valuable life skill.

Growing a business requires a sound strategy based on inherent business sense and skills.

 

 

EntreComp Entrepreneurship Framework. Take a look also at the list of competences. The Entrepreneurship Competence Framework (developed by JRC in 2015). 

 

Entrepreneurship competence what it is?

Those with an entrepreneurial zeal need to play three prominent roles.

1. Creator
2. Organizer
3. Market maker

So the competencies for entrepreneurship are designed to help people perform in these roles effectively. (Source:

Entrepreneurship Competency – What is It and Why Is It Important?). (23.3.2023).

I would like to add CFO -role as the fourth prominent role.
