There has never been a better time to explore international opportunities and become a global entrepreneur. Becoming an entrepreneur today is less of a trade-off than it used to be. Between corporate layoffs, foreign competition, and the decline of labor unions, the typical employee may no longer assume that his or her job will be there for the next 3 to 5 years. Entrepreneurs need to have a global mind-set to face a highly competitive global economy. Common traits identified among global entrepreneurs are cultural diversity, desire to achieve, internal locus of control, clear vision, tolerance for ambiguity, integrity, and a global sense of responsibility. Companies are born global, and internationalization is no longer a choice but a requirement for today's global competitive business environment.
