<span class="title-prefix">6.3</span> The Habits of Successful Entrepreneurs</h2>
<p class="para editable block" id="sanders_1.0-ch06_s04_p01">Creativity, as we have suggested earlier, can be learned. Dyer, Gregersen, and Christensen investigated the habits of 25 successful innovative entrepreneurs (e.g., Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, etc.) over the course of a 6-year study.<span class="footnote" id="sanders_1.0-fn06_010">Dyer, Gregersen, and Christensen (2009).</span> Here is an overview of their findings related to entrepreneurs:</p>
<ul class="itemizedlist editable block" id="sanders_1.0-ch06_s04_l01">
<li>They make unusual and unique associations and combinations of processes, products, and technologies.</li>
<li>They are good at asking questions related to the why, why not, and what-ifs processes, products, and technologies.</li>
<li>They like to observe and scrutinize processes, products, and technologies.</li>
<li>They are experimenters with processes, products, and technologies.</li>
<li>They are good at networking.</li>
</ul>
<p class="para editable block" id="sanders_1.0-ch06_s04_p02">The authors of the study also note that these skills can be developed through practice and by creating an environment conducive to their development. The following section presents a series of steps that we have identified to create an environment that fosters creativity.</p>
