Based on their working relationship with the business environment they are functioning in, various types of entrepreneurs can be found. The chief categories are these four types of entrepreneurs, i.e.
● Innovative entrepreneurs,
● Imitating Entrepreneurs,
● Fabian Entrepreneurs, and
● Drone Entrepreneurs.
Let us now discuss each of them in detail
Innovative Entrepreneurs
This type of an entrepreneur is more interested in introducing some new ideas into the market, organization or in the nation. They are drawn towards innovations and invest a lot of time and wealth in doing research and development.
Imitating Entrepreneurs
These are often disparagingly referred to as ‘copy cats’. They observe an existing successful system and replicate it in a manner where all the deficiencies of the original business model are addressed and all its efficiencies are retained.
These entrepreneurs help to improve an existing product or production process and can offer suggestions to enhance the use of better technology.
Fabian entrepreneurs
These are entrepreneurs that are very careful in their approaches and cautious in adopting any changes. They are not prone to sudden decisions and try to shy away from any innovations or change that doesn’t fit their narrative.
Drone entrepreneurs
These are entrepreneurs who do not like a change. They are considered as ‘old school’. They want to do business in their own traditional or orthodox methods of production and systems. Such people attach pride and tradition to even outdated methods of doing business.
