What does it take to start something from scratch? Entrepreneur, teacher and arts consultant Greg Kandel, who has been working with us on our strategic plans, offered us some advice. If you are going to embark on the exciting journey of founding an organization, you should have:
People who believe in you
Risk tolerance
Willingness to fail
A sense of adventure
Something driving you, a strong reason for doing it
Tenacity, the ability to hold onto something you believe in
Self-confidence, either by nature and/or because of past success
A great idea about what you want to do and how you're going to accomplish it
Restlessness
A healthy dose of humility, the ability to seek and value the advice and opinions of others
