Christian Wanner
The Real Journey of an Entrepreneur
Lift Events Sàrl, 2012
Sobre o que é?
Ernest Shackleton’s call for volunteers on his fated 1915 expedition to Antarctica appeals to the sense of adventure that is common among entrepreneurs.
Recommendation
Ernest Shackleton’s ill-fated expedition to Antarctica in 1915 presents an apt metaphor for the entrepreneurial experience. Like explorers, business founders must navigate uncharted terrain to reach their destinations. Christian Wanner, a co-founder of LeShop, a Swiss online supermarket and delivery service, describes his personal entrepreneurial adventure. By drawing parallels between his retail exploits and Shackleton’s arduous, death-defying voyage, Wanner exhibits more than a little ego, though hubris is characteristic of many successful entrepreneurs. getAbstract recommends Wanner’s account to anyone with a novel idea who is embarking on a quest for greatness.
