Week 2 Reading Reflection

Reading Reflection for Week 2: Kuratko Chapter 1

The textbook talks in-depth about entrepreneurship as a process. This was surprising to me because, for most people, it is usually thought of as a spontaneous collection of fortunate events and risk taking. I also wasn’t expecting there to be so many schools of thought in just the micro view of entrepreneurship. I understood much of what the book discussed, however I still find it difficult to grasp the whole concept between the integrative approach and the dynamic states approach. Some questions that I have for the author are, “What would the best step to take before taking on entrepreneurial ventures?” and “How do gazelle companies impact economic growth?” A few criticism  about the book that I would like to point out is the lack of applicable examples and the overall format of the book. I think that these should be improved because they play an important role of an entrepreneurship book because it makes it more applicable to real life situations and easier to read .
