Global forum for business management and entrepreneurship. Cooperation for global success

Is it necessary for Startups to join forums for business management and entrepreneurship?

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together”. That’s why, once you have a startup intention, you shouldn’t ignore the opportunities to join Forums for business management and entrepreneurship.  

Without support from Forums, how hard is it for you to go alone?

For young startups or young people who have a passion for business management and are learning this field, self-study, and self-development without the support, advice, and directions from this kind of forum is very difficult.

High pressure, Low success rate – Easily become discouraged

When you consider whether you should develop your own business or build your own brand or not, you will be under a lot of pressure. These are forming and choosing business ideas, raising funds, preparing capital, attracting and organizing a team, etc., and even your belief in your own ability.

Inability to find suitable training materials, courses, and learning pathway

Learning must go together with practice. If you want to develop your own business, you need to keep learning and feeding your mind with knowledge. Or put simply, if anyone wants to excel in business management, learning alone is never enough.
The knowledge that you learn in school or university takes up a small part only. Because the business environment evolves and changes constantly and business activities take many different shapes and forms. Thus, business management requires learners to have self-learning abilities. You need to study and keep updated with knowledge, practices, and industry information to inform and direct your decisions. Learning the models and theories in your College’s programs is not enough, it is more important for you to experiment and practice them and learn from your own experience. You also need to flexibly and wisely study, analyze and solve problems and then make decisions. To do that, nothing is better than having companions for your journey to share your concerns, listen to your problems, and give you useful advice. There is no perfect theory or model that can be applied to all types of companies. There is no unique path toward success that can be applied to all people either. Therefore, what you need is your intellectual capacity, learning ability, and the knowledge, directions, and experience from seniors. You need people who have the practical experience to support you and accompany you in all stages of your business journey, from startup, to scale-up, or even after the company has been established in the market to have radical change for your continuous growth.

You may have no co-founders, but shouldn’t lack companions

Starting a business is never easy, that’s why it is suggested that you should have one or two co-founders. However, not all entrepreneurs are lucky enough to find co-founders who share the same vision, purpose, and passion, and have a working style fit but a different skill set to complement each other.
Not to mention, many co-founders broke up after the company became successful or blamed each other for the company’s failure. That’s the reason why many young entrepreneurs choose to start up on their own. However, if that’s your choice, you will face not only loneliness on your journey but also a lack of directions, complementary skills, encouragement, etc. If you open a small business with low capital and human resource requirements, your decision-making and devotion to work will be much easier than managing million- or billion-dollar businesses. For those businesses, you will need a huge monetary and human capital. In such cases, if you are alone, how can you raise funds and/or develop your team? Even if you have co-founders, you may still lack diverse experience, knowledge, and skills in business management and fundraising. Consequently, whether you have co-founders or not, you should have companions. But where can you find companions and how to choose qualified ones for your businesses? 

Business Management Forums – support and strengthen businesses for growth

A good business management forum always has young members who have a passion for business management and experienced experts. And if they are lucky enough, some forums like Kounselly may occasionally have fund-raising advisors or even investors who are looking for potential projects to invest in – a golden opportunity for young startups. Joining a qualified business management forum is creating a connection between you and your companions. It is also the place where you can freely and comfortably share your concerns and seek support in not only the knowledge, and materials but also encouragement. (See also: Selecting a trustworthy Entrepreneurship Forum, a companion for the success of your entrepreneurial journey) Furthermore, with a forum and communities like Kounselly, you can ask for opinions, advice, and consultancy to support your projects from experts with over 5 years of experience all over the world. These are not only your companions but also the teachers, trainers, and mentors who are like the living library for you to freely seek training materials, advice, and the secret of success in your own field.

Summary

Do not stop finding people who are willing to support your ideas and accompany you across your journey to implement those ideas. If you start your journey with companions who are passionate and experienced, your startup journey will be easier. The opportunities to join business management forums are not limited, but the importance is whether you know how to embrace those opportunities and select the qualified and suitable forum to join or not.
