Introducing the Hybrid Entrepreneur

Posted by: admin In: Entrepreneurship

The Hybrid Entrepreneur (HE) in adopting new skills, will inevitably become more valuable to their employer….

There is a common directive communicated down through organisations that permeates in many cases to the coalface: - “Be more innovative!”, of course this means taking risks and trying things that have never been tried before, and in most cases even thought of. This request and policy in some cases, is generally met with the cynicism considering the very fabric of the organisation rests on process and the eradication of risk and uncertainty.

Welcome

Posted by: admin In: Entrepreneurship

My name is Peter Christo. I am a professional entrepreneur based in Melbourne Australia. I am also a doting father of two. I mention that because the entrepreneurial profession, while wonderful when fully swinging up, also has consequences on the way down, especially on the people we cherish. I have had my fair share of testing times, and who knows may have again.

    About

    I have been self employed or involved in business ventures (in one form or another since 1995), having only worked for 2 years in industry after my undergraduate degree. I undertook a number of business ventures some more successful than others. After a wild ride between 1999 and 2002, I undertook a Masters degree in Innovation and Entrepreneurship and simultaneously got married and became a dad soon after. These two events re-orientated my perspective on life as I knew it. I am now involved in multiple business ventures. I also lecture in entrepreneurship and I am a “doting dad”. This blog is mainly about that revised perspective, and is an opportunity to reflect on the current juxtaposition between business ventures, fatherhood and just being a man. Thanks for visiting!
