Each atage makes certain demands on an entrepreneur. This paper examines some of these demands. The entrepreneur has to cope with the demands of the entrepreneurial process. For this, he requires certain motives, abilities and attitudes.This papers attempts to derive propositions regarding what motives, abilities and attitudes an entrepreneur may require. It also briefly tries to explain how these qualities may develop in an entrepreneur.
