00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,840
Hi everybody. So this is the next one on our advanced personality testing program

2
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:12,720
which is called employee entrepreneur test. This is very interesting because

3
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:17,280
especially for the young adults, for the young teenagers, young ones who are

4
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:21,840
graduating, fresh graduates, they are uncertain about whether they are

5
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:27,200
suited to an as an employee or as an entrepreneur. However it may be graduates

6
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,560
of any kind. This will be very crucial for them to take this kind of a test.

7
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:38,400
Why? Because every kind of profession, whatever you are in these days in 2022 has

8
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:43,520
an opportunity for them to be either self-employed or like an entrepreneur

9
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:50,160
or they can be employed in an institution of some kind. So it's very important to see and

10
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:55,680
let's see what the crucial aspects are. This will bring out some crucial aspects. This testing is

11
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:03,840
exposing to the individual where their areas are with respect to inclinations,

12
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:10,480
will it serve them better in their lives to be employed or to be having the business of their own.

13
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:19,600
What is an employee entrepreneur testing about? I made some three points here.

14
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:26,160
At an early stages of youth as young adults, we are talking about the age group of 18 to 30 years old.

15
00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:31,360
Many of us think about whether we could be good as an employee or as an entrepreneur. It's very

16
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:37,600
important to know the psychological differences. To help understand this better, a simple test

17
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:44,560
will give you where you are now on that scale. It's always a scale. It's always shades of different colors.

18
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:51,440
Again, this is a scale, nothing to do with good or bad. Just a profile of what areas of

19
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:57,760
personality would need to tweak, especially if you want to become an entrepreneur. No point in

20
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:03,280
sinking all your money and all your energy and time into something where you are inherently not

21
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:10,640
good at. Let's see how it fairs. See a sample report now. A sample employee

22
00:02:10,640 --> 00:02:14,720
entrepreneur report by chart will look like this. Either you're an employee or an entrepreneur.

23
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:23,440
This person's results showed his 222 score on entrepreneur, which is very high entrepreneurial

24
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:27,600
qualities about them. They can be even employed, but they should be given a lot of independence in

25
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:33,920
their work. They tend to think and work independently. And he's got only 92% of employees who wouldn't

26
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:41,760
make a very good employee. If they want to choose to go to business, this is very ideal. Okay.

27
00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:47,760
Some differences between employees and entrepreneurs. We are talking about mindset. We are talking about

28
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:56,000
psychology and personality inherent traits here. Okay. Qualities. Employees tend to seek direction.

29
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:03,280
Well, entrepreneurs create a path. Employees tend to seek help when a problem arises at work.

30
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:08,800
Entrepreneurs create the solutions that keep the organization moving forward. So you get the energy

31
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:17,040
of how one chooses to focus. Okay. Employees take fewer risks while entrepreneurs live for them.

32
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:24,800
By doing things the safest way can actually be good for the organization. It takes a risk

33
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:31,040
tolerant and entrepreneur to believe in and build an organization in the first place. Employees tend

34
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:37,920
to take lesser risks. Okay. Employees are often specialists while entrepreneurs are generalists.

35
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:44,160
Entrepreneurs need to know a little bit about a lot of things in part so they can empower the

36
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:50,720
specialist employees who work for them. In fact, a Swiss German study found that specialists tend

37
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:58,000
to be employees for life and in fact prefer that role. Employees get paid for their role while

38
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,840
entrepreneurs get paid for results. Entrepreneurs are sometimes the last to get paid in a company

39
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:10,400
because their compensation is tied directly to the performance and profit of the company as a whole.

40
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:20,640
Some differences between employees and entrepreneurs. Some more continued. Employees follow rules

41
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:26,240
while entrepreneurs break them. It's a strange paradox but to create successful business

42
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:32,480
and entrepreneur has to disrupt something. These are the change makers. Break a rule or change the

43
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:38,240
game or the nature of the game. But in order to keep the entrepreneurs company going, the employees

44
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:44,080
need to be there to uphold a new status quo. Somebody has to hold the ground while the

45
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:51,920
entrepreneurs trying to run with the idea. More like employees are implementers while

46
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:57,840
entrepreneurs are the designers. Entrepreneurs improve their skills. Employees improve their

47
00:04:57,840 --> 00:05:05,840
weaknesses. Entrepreneurs may produce lousy work. Employees are perfectionists. Entrepreneurs thrive

48
00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:13,520
on risk. Employees are wide-ed. Employees are threatened by smarter people. Entrepreneurs hire them.

49
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:21,280
Employees dream about freedom. Entrepreneurs enjoy freedom. Employees trade time for money.

50
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:30,160
Entrepreneurs create value for money. Huge one there. Employees wish to be the smartest person

51
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,520
in the room. That's why that much competition goes on in corporate environments between employees.

52
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:40,560
They wish to be the smartest. Trying to outsmart everyone. Entrepreneurs wish to be surrounded

53
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,640
with people who are smarter than them. They are the constant learners.

54
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:55,360
Work-life balance is a major difference between an entrepreneur and an employee. Many

55
00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:00,960
employees try to balance their commitment to the job without the commitment to their families and

56
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:06,320
personal life. Running your own business requires accepting that you can't balance everything.

57
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:12,000
Some parts of a life are going to suffer or disrupted or compromised compared to work.

58
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:17,680
If balance is more important to you, think carefully before launching your own business.

59
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:22,640
You are better off as an employee. If you think I want all areas of my life balanced,

60
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:28,080
typically this is not your first choice to become an entrepreneur because it is going to be disrupted

61
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:35,120
a lot in the beginning. Risk is another big difference. Some employees find the risk of going

62
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:42,720
without a steady paycheck, a monthly paycheck or a health coverage frightening. Some feel it is their

63
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:49,760
duty to support their family. Familiar ties makes them gambling or on entrepreneurship an

64
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:55,600
unacceptable choice. They don't want to gamble away their time with their family, their children,

65
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:02,480
this social situation for the sake of a kinder vision. They are safe in their comfort zone.

66
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:08,240
The people who become entrepreneurs accept this gamble. Some of them thrive on uncertainty.

67
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:14,080
So as you can see, this makes a huge difference if you know these points, which the results of

68
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:23,520
this test will give you. And how best you can decide if you do want to jump into entrepreneurship.

69
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:28,240
Well, these are all the risks associated. This is how I need to change my thinking pattern.

70
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,880
This is where I need to change my thinking pattern and explore that. Maybe read some books,

71
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:39,920
maybe attend some seminars, conferences, etc. Try to tune yourself as a result of this test,

72
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:45,920
going forward into where I need to tweak or where I am comfortable. If you are comfortable being an

73
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,760
employee, be comfortable being an employee. There is nothing wrong with anything. It is not a wrong

74
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:59,760
or right picture here. It is just what suits your personality the best.
