The Entrepreneurial Trap

Newtown (map)

Selected By: Tanveer Amin

The numbers are alarming: only 50% of startups survive their first 5 years of operations. The truth is that most business owners don't succeed and it's not because they're not doing any work. Rather, they are just doing the wrong kind of work.

Come hear Peter Vogopoulos, President of Exceeding Limits, a Montreal based business and leadership consulting firm, talk about the Entrepreneurial Trap and how it threatens the well being of the majority of entrepreneurs. In his presentation, Peter will talk about the following:

- The 3 roles of the entrepreneur and how every business owner must perform these roles in order to succeed.

- The flawed business structure that most entrepreneurs embrace and how it ultimately fails them.

- The underlying reason why people fall into the Entrepreneurial Trap and how to overcome it.

The event will take place at Newtown Restaurant, located on Crescent Street near Metro Guy or Peel (corner of Crescent and Maisonneuve). We look forward to seeing you there.

    I didn't like the choice of venue. There weren't enough seats, I specifically like taking notes but the setting wasn't appropriate for doing so and it was difficult to hear the speaker. I am certain that had the setting been different, the speaker would have been more motivated to talk for a longer period of time and people would have asked more questions. Nonetheless, I find these events to be very informative. Thanks. Tania.
