Dr. Scott Shane - An Evening with Dr. Scott Shane, Author of The Illusions of Entrepreneurship and Born Entrepreneurs, Born Leaders

An Evening with Dr. Scott Shane
One of my favorite authors in the field of entrepreneurship is Dr. Scott Shane. We spent an evening with Dr. Scott Shane, author of the recent book, The Illusions of Entrepreneurship. This book challenges the prevailing myths about entrepreneurs in America, shedding light on who they really are, what they do, and how they achieve success. Dr. Shane, a renowned expert in entrepreneurial activity both in the United States and globally, uses extensive research data to provide a clear, accurate picture of the entrepreneurial landscape. He delves into the realities of who becomes an entrepreneur and why, the processes of starting a business, and the factors that lead to either success or failure.

In addition to discussing The Illusions of Entrepreneurship, we will also explore Dr. Shane's work, Born Entrepreneurs, Born Leaders: How Your Genes Affect Your Work Life. This groundbreaking book is the first to comprehensively review scientific literature on the genetic effects on organizational behavior, presenting these complex ideas in an accessible way for practitioners. With over 100 scholarly articles on entrepreneurship and innovation management to his name, Dr. Shane is a leading voice in his field. Currently a Professor of Entrepreneurial Studies and Economics at Case Western Reserve University, Dr. Shane brings a wealth of knowledge and insights to our discussion.
