Former Chief Manager at Central Bank of India (1987–2017)
For Fly By Night Entrepreneurs - the Skills required are simply two - Lies and Hype
This is sufficient for a fly by night startup that will rise like to a sharp peak and collapse equally fast.
For Real Entrepreneurs like Google or Microsoft - I believe in my personal opinion - the Skills required include :-
Core Competence - The Entrepreneur should actually be good at his field. Really Good. Really Really Good. You want to design an OS - you have to be superb at whatever is needed to do so technically. You want to make a Robot - your Robotics skill should be A1. Ultimately you have to be Good. Mediocre Talents cannot be Real Entrepreneurs unless they team up with Excellent Talents.
Patience - This is a very crucial thing. A Real Entrepreneur must know when to be patient and when to promote and advertise. Sometimes it may take 15 years before a Startup can be profitable and in 5 more years it can hit a 5 Billion mark but very few Entrepreneurs are willing to wait for 15 years (At least in India). They all want the Billion Buck Valuation in 3 years or 5 years which means Disaster in general.
Humility - Again you are not contesting for elections. Humility is crucial here. Startups are very very risky even in general and there is a 13 chance in 1000 that your startup can be a sustainable success all the way to IPO (987 chances in 1000 that it will fail). So being Humble is crucial. Always keep quiet and dont make unrealistic projections or make hype about your products. Advertise only when you have an Acceptable Quality.

印度中央银行前首席经理(1987-2017)
对于不够可靠的企业家来说,所需的技能只有两个——谎言和炒作
这对于一个不够可靠的初创公司来说已经足够了,它会迅速崛起达到顶点,也会同样迅速地崩溃。
对于像谷歌或微软这样的真正的企业家,我相信在我个人的观点中,所需的技能包括:
核心能力:企业家实际上应该擅长自己的领域。真的很擅长,真的真的很擅长。你若想设计一个操作系统——你必须在技术上做到这一点。你想制造一个机器人——你的机器人技能应该是A1。最终,你必须做到优秀。平庸的人才不可能成为真正的企业家,除非他们与优秀的人才合作。
耐心:这是一件非常关键的事情。一个真正的企业家必须知道什么时候该耐心,什么时候该宣传和做广告。有时,初创企业可能需要15年才能盈利,再过5年就可以达到50亿大关,但很少有企业家愿意等待15年(至少在印度)。他们都希望在3年或5年内达到十亿的估值,这意味着灾难。
谦逊:再说一遍,你不是在竞选。谦逊在这里至关重要。即使在一般情况下,初创企业的风险也非常大,你的初创企业在IPO之前有千分之十三的机会取得可持续的成功(1000分之987的机会失败)。所以谦逊是至关重要的。永远保持沉默,不要对你的产品做出不切实际的预测或大肆宣传。只有当你具有可接受的质量时才进行广告。

Courage - Stand up to Criticism. Not hide behind nonsense like “I only take Criticism from Gates and Musk” or “All Critics are Crabs” or “I will remove lixed in or Youtube account”. As a Startup - you will face much more criticism than a normal established company. You need a team to handle and uate criticism and not call everyone a troll and be an Ostrich. Example - Ather , Cred are such startups which take a lot of criticism constructively.
Unconventionalism - For gods sake dont read books on Entrepreneurship. I cannot read a book on how to play cricket and become Kohli and i cannot read a book on how to act and become Irrfan Khan. Dont Quote nonsense quotes from the Self Help Books which in my opinion are utter and total disasters. None of those diagrams or those theories.
Accountancy - This is a crucial skill. You cannot trust your money unless you have some skill to understand how it is being spent. Unless your wife is the CFO or your father or sister, you have to learn Accountancy and understand the intricacies of a Start UP Balance Sheet which is so much different from a Public Companys Balance sheet. Almost 70% Startups have money related fights in the first 3 years - due to different assumptions.

勇气:勇敢面对批评。不要躲在“我只接受盖茨和马斯克的批评”、“所有批评者都是螃蟹”或“我会删除链接或油管账户”之类的废话后面。作为一家初创企业,你将面临比一家普通的老牌公司多得多的批评。你需要一个团队来处理和评估批评,而不是把每个人都称为巨魔和逃避现实的人。例如,Ather、Cred就曾是这样的初创公司,它们建设性地接受了很多批评。
非传统主义:看在上帝的份上,不要读关于创业的书。我没读到一本关于如何打板球并成为科利的书,也没读到关于如何行动并成为伊尔凡·汗的书。不要引用自助书籍中的胡言乱语,在我看来,这些都是彻头彻尾的灾难。它们没有图解或理论。
会计:这是一项至关重要的技能。你不能相信你的钱,除非你有一些技巧来了解它是如何被花费的。除非你的妻子或者你的父亲或姐姐是首席财务官,否则你必须学习会计,了解初创企业资产负债表的复杂性,这与上市公司的资产负债表有很大不同。由于不同的假设,近70%的初创企业在前三年都会陷入与金钱有关的麻烦中。

Networking - Meeting People. This is crucial. A Introvert would not do well unless he has a Revolutionary Product. Entrepreneurs need to meet other people and talk to them and network with them. This is a way to uate talent, recruit new talent, new strategies, ideas, establish new markets etc.
Some Hobby - Entrepreneurs are under tremendous tension most of the times. This requires stress relief to avoid smoking 50 cigarettes a day. A Hobby would do very well. Westerners prefer Mini Golf or Golf as a stress buster or Racket Ball (Their version of Squash) but hobbies like Cricket or Gaming would be useful to rid off the stress.
Awareness and Adaptability - An Entrepreneur has to be constantly aware of his competitors and the innovations in his field. A Restaurant should be aware of new competition, new tastes while a Edtech should be aware of free courses and new technology. Likewise Adaptability is very crucial here. The Entrepreneur has to evolve all the time.
People Management - Startups have shaky employee related issues in a way which is stronger than normal companies. So People skills are crucial here.
Finally the Greatest thing an Entrepreneur needs is LUCK
That is something that you cannot learn from a Skill. That is something that is written on your forehead.

人际网络-:与人会面。这一点至关重要。一个内向的人除非有一个革命性的产品,否则他不会做得很好。企业家需要与其他人见面,与他们交谈,并与他们建立联系。这是一种评估人才、招聘新人才、新战略、新想法、建立新市场等的方式。
一些业余企业家在大多数时候都处于巨大的紧张状态。这需要缓解压力,避免每天抽50支烟。有爱好就好了。西方人更喜欢迷你高尔夫或高尔夫球来减压,也喜欢拍球(西方版的壁球),但像板球或游戏这样的爱好也有助于消除压力。
意识和适应性:企业家必须时刻关注他的竞争对手和他所在领域的创新。餐厅应该意识到新的竞争和新的口味,而教育技术人员应该意识到免费课程和新技术。同样,适应性在这里也是至关重要的。企业家必须一直进化。
人事管理:初创企业在员工相关问题上存在不稳定的问题,这比普通公司更为严重。因此,人际交往技能在这里至关重要。
最后,企业家最需要的就是运气
这是你无法从技能中学到的东西,这是写在你额头上的东西。

Asim Qureshi
A friend of mine has huge feet - sized UK 13.
A few years ago I was strolling through a high-end departmental store in Malaysia with him.
He saw a shoe he liked, asked for it in his size, tried it on, went to the cashier to pay with his credit card.
The odd thing was that the price wasn't written on the shoe, he hadn't asked the price, and he wasn't particularly wealthy - he was in the early stages of a startup.
I asked him, "Why didn't you even ask for the price of the shoe before buying?"
He explained, "Asim, the shoes could cost anything from US$200 to $1k, I liked them, and my shoe size is pretty difficult to find in Malaysia. If I spend 2 hours finding a shoe at the lowest end of that scale I'd save up to $800 but my 2 hours is worth way more than that to me."
The shoes ended up costing around $300.
This guy is now worth more than $10m.
Tip. Value your time.

我的一个朋友脚的尺寸很大—英码13码。
几年前,我和他一起在马来西亚的一家高端百货公司闲逛。
他看到一双他喜欢的鞋,就要了他尺码的鞋,试穿了一下,然后去收银台用信用卡付款。
奇怪的是,鞋子上没有写价格,他也没有问价格,而且他也不是特别富有——他正处于创业的早期阶段。
我问他:“你为什么在买之前都不问一下鞋子的价格?”
他解释道:“Asim,这双鞋的价格从200到1000不等,我很喜欢,而且我的鞋码在马来西亚很难找到。如果我花2个小时找到一双最低价位的鞋,我最多可以节省800,但我的2个小时对我来说价值远不止这些。”
这双鞋最终花了大约300元。
这家伙现在身价超过1000万。
提示:珍惜你的时间。

Some skills which are worth learning and can pay off on a long term for entrepreneurs maybe as follows:
Thinking out of the box: Entrepreneurship is all about doing something different on one's own capabilities. The ability to think outside the box is a lifeline, for a successful entrepreneur.
Belief in Oneself: Remember, you start the journey solo. So , this belief in oneself should be life long and not only till business settles. ‘I M Possible’ works here. This skill is a big time buffer, for the down times of one's business life cycle.
Values and Integrity: There is no replacement to Ethics in Business. Ethical practices not only ensures continuous growth, development and expansion but also makes life worth living with pride and honor.
24/7 Updation on Market Statistics and Trends: One needs to know all that is happening in the market regarding one's business. ‘Stay foolish. Stay hungry’, applies here. One should be upxed always. Ask, ask and ask, till you get it. Be it economic slowdown, an economic rise, competitor progress, new launches, scientific interventions, discoveries, consumer trends, import export norms and laws, financial forecasts & predictions and everything else, that may affect one's business directly or indirectly.
Innovation and Creativity: This has be an inevitable skill to come to entrepreneurs. Sustainable business gets that impetus and push, only when one challenges status quo. Innovation can take you places, you never dreamt of. So get creative 365 days. Clicking even 5 % of it, is business excellence ensured.

一些值得学习的技能对企业家来说可能会有长期的回报,如下所示:
跳出思维定势:创业就是利用自己的能力做一些不同的事情。对于一个成功的企业家来说,跳出思维定势的能力是一条生命线。
相信自己:记住,你要独自开始旅程。因此,这种对自己的信念应该是终身的,而不仅仅是在生意稳定之前。”“我能”是很有效的。这项技能对于一个人商业生命周期的低谷时期,起很大的时间缓冲方面的作用。
价值观和诚信:商业道德是不可替代的。道德实践不仅确保了持续的成长、发展和扩张,而且使生活变得值得骄傲和荣誉。
全天候更新市场统计数据和趋势:人们需要了解市场上正在发生的关于自己业务的一切。”保持愚蠢。“保持饥饿”,适用于此处。其中一个应该始终更新。问、问、问,直到你明白为止。无论是经济放缓、经济崛起、竞争对手的发展、新产品发布、科学干预、发现、消费者趋势、进出口规范和法律、财务预测和预测,还是其他一切,都可能直接或间接影响一个人的业务。
创新和创造力:这是企业家不可避免的技能。只有当企业挑战现状时,可持续发展的业务才能获得动力和推动。创新可以把你带到你从未梦想过的地方。所以365天都要有创造力。即使只运用到其中的5%,也能确保业务的卓越。

Take Failures as Stepping Stones to pursue Excellence: it maybe normal to falter and fall in entrepreneurial ventures. Failures need to be taken as learning lessons. Failures give you lessons that neither books, expertise or success can. So take them as stepping stones to challenge oneself to be more cautious, intelligent and smart the next time, you do it.
Never Give Up Attitude: A very important skill to sustain oneself as an entrepreneur is that innate drive to keep on going and going. Many startups give up after initial losses. In order to reach your entrepreneurial dreams, one should learn, never to give up, against all odds and challenges, one comes across in one's business.
Ability to take Risks: Business is all about taking risks. One cannot know the depth of the water waiting at the shore. One needs to dive down with calculated risks to fathom, understand and play the game well.
Stay out of Huge Loans: Borrowing is good till such time there is surplus to return . A No profits-No Loss squared off deal is much better than chased by Banks and Lenders to pay loans due to them. So one needs to stay within one's limits of borrowing, and, not go beyond.
Keep false promises away; Deliver what is committed. Good business and leadership is all about a lifelong relationship of trust and service. Do not promise what you cannot deliver. Stay committed to your claims and promises.

以失败为垫脚石,追求卓越:在创业过程中踌躇和失败也许很正常。失败需要作为学习的教训。失败给你的教训是书本、专业知识或成功无法给你的。所以,把它们当作垫脚石,挑战自己,让自己在下一次更谨慎、更聪明、理解力更强。
永不放弃的态度:作为一名企业家,维持自己的一项非常重要的技能是坚持下去的内在动力。许多初创公司在最初亏损后就放弃了。为了实现你的创业梦想,一个人应该学会,永远不要放弃,克服一切事业中遇到的困难和挑战。
承担风险的能力:商业就是要承担风险。在岸边等待的人无法知道水有多深。玩家需要在计算风险的情况下深入研究、理解和玩好游戏。
远离巨额贷款:借贷是好的,但在此之前,得有盈余可以归还。一个无利润无损失的交易比被银行和贷款人追着支付到期贷款要好得多。因此,人需要保持在自己的借贷限额之内,而不要超出限额。
远离虚假的承诺;兑现承诺。良好的业务和领导力是一种终身的信任和服务关系。不要承诺你不能兑现的东西。坚持你的主张和承诺。

Five crucial skills of an entrepreneur to know about
Learn to observe: Being an entrepreneur, this is an essential skill that you need to learn in-depth. It is important to observe things happening around your business. You need to know ‘how’ to observe the right way to get the desired results. You also need to come up with valuable ideas to put them into action. Looking around and noting what is happening around you can help get effective and productive ideas. This, in turn, allows you to develop critical skills, essential to achieve success in your business.
Willingness to experiment with new things: It is common for almost all organizations, be it small or big to face failures at some point in time. No strategy can be super effective to produce 100% positive results. Unforeseen circumstances may cause even good strategies to fail miserably. Hence, as an entrepreneur, it is necessary to come to terms and understand that failure is inevitable and is likely to occur frequently. You may have possibly tried out something, but did not get the desired results. In such a case, you should try it once again, but differently. Start the process to recognize as well as reward all ideas. Try to gather valuable feedback from customers and move ahead with the set prototype.
Network to achieve success: This is one of the important qualities of a successful entrepreneur. It is not possible to achieve success without external assistance. You need to form a sound relationship with other organizations and business people. This will propel your business forwards. Hence, identify events to derive opportunities to network fast with other people. Get to know how they can assist your business and what can you offer them in return.
Question everything: As soon as the new process or prototype is put into place, the next step is to measure and understand your customers’ opinions. Do not hesitate, but ask them! Discuss with your customers frequently by throwing questions relevant to your company about the new process and offers launched.
Take calculated risks: With no risk taken, you cannot expect to gain profits. You are to take calculated risks to create luck to shine on your business. This can help your organization to change, progress and achieve success.

企业家需要了解的五项关键技能
学会观察:作为一名企业家,这是一项需要深入学习的基本技能。观察企业周围发生的事情是很重要的。你需要知道“如何”观察正确的方法才能得到想要的结果。你还需要拿出有价值的想法来付诸行动。环顾四周,注意周围发生的事情可以帮助你获得有效和富有成效的想法。这反过来又可以让你发展关键技能,这对你的企业取得成功至关重要。
尝试新事物的意愿:几乎所有组织,无论大小,在某个时间点面临失败都是很常见的。任何策略都不可能超有效地产生100%的积极结果。不可预见的情况可能会导致即使是好的策略也会惨败。因此,作为一名企业家,但是,有必要接受和理解失败是不可避免的,而且可能经常发生。你可能尝试过一些东西,但没有得到想要的结果。在这种情况下,您应该再次尝试,但方式不同。开始这个过程,认可并奖励所有的想法。试着从客户那里收集有价值的反馈,并推进设定的原型。
关系网助你成功:这是一个成功企业家的重要品质之一。没有外部援助是不可能取得成功的。你需要与其他组织和业务人员建立良好的关系。这将推动你的业务向前发展。因此,识别事件以获得与他人快速交流的机会。了解他们如何帮助你的业务,以及你能给他们什么回报。
质疑一切:一旦新流程或原型投入使用,下一步就是衡量和理解客户的意见。不要犹豫,但要问他们!经常与客户讨论有关公司新流程和推出的优惠方面的问题。
承担合理的风险:不承担风险,你就不能指望获得利润。你必须承担合理的风险,为你的事业创造好运。这可以帮助你的组织改变、进步和取得成功。

I barely find people who hate Rahul Dravid
The moment someone say “Dravid Fan”, there wouldn’t be any counter attacks and people always say “cool. Great”. That’s called Ultimate Success in life
This respect didn’t come just with his play. But also with his Patience
Patience in accepting different roles required for the team
I say Patience is the toughest skill anyone could learn
I call Being Patient (Not about health) is a skill

我几乎找不到讨厌Rahul Dravid的人
一旦有人说“Dravid 的粉丝”,就不会有任何反击,人们总是说“酷。太棒了”。这就是所谓的人生终极成功
这种尊重不仅仅来自于他的表演。但也有他的耐心
耐心接受团队所需的不同角色
我说耐心是任何人都能学到的最难的技能
我称耐心(与健康无关)是一种技能

How can I become a successful entrepreneur?
Being a successful entrepreneur is easy. The steps are below:
Find a problem that people will pay you to solve.
Solve the problem.
Make the solution available at the right price.
Spend less money providing the solution than you earn in revenue.
Make a profit.
Pay all bills and taxes on time.
Save and invest in your future and the future of your company.
Repeat as needed.

我如何才能成为一名成功的企业家?
成为一个成功的企业家很容易。步骤如下:
找到一个人们会付钱给你去解决的问题。
解决问题。
以合适的价格提供解决方案。
提供解决方案所花费的资金少于你的收入。
赚钱
按时支付所有账单和税款。
为你的未来和公司的未来储蓄和投资。
根据需要重复。

Gericke Potgieter
What is the most important mindset skill needed to become successful as an entrepreneur?
Ah. Another “magic ingredient” question on entrepreneurship. Most entrepreneurs are just risk takers that understand the math behind profit. They are not nearly as special as these idiolization questions imply.
But if you have to press me for an answer it would be this: failure is your friend.
You'll lose money. You'll lose “friends.” You'll lose round after round of trying to build something that actually works. The market will laugh at your pain. Nobody will care about your ideas. The banks just want your assets. Investors will rip you to shreds.
But like some crazy idiot you'll just try to do it all again.
But if you have the humility to learn from every failure, you might just be the exception to the rule and make it work.
It is a terrible life choice.

作为一名企业家,要想取得成功,最重要的心态技能是什么?
关于创业的另一个“神奇因素”问题。大多数企业家都是敢于冒险的人,他们了解利润背后的数学原理。它们并不像这些白痴化问题所暗示的那样特别。
但如果你必须向我施压,要求我给出一个答案,那就是:失败是你的朋友。
你会赔钱的。你会失去“朋友”。你会在一轮又一轮的尝试中失败。市场会嘲笑你的痛苦。没有人会关心你的想法。银行只需要你的资产,投资者会把你撕成碎片。
但你会像个疯了的白痴一样,试图再次尝试。
但是,如果你能谦逊地从每一次失败中吸取教训,你可能只是这个规则的例外,并让它发挥作用。
这是一个可怕的人生选择。
