There is a growing perception that American entrepreneurship is simply about getting rich no matter how it is done and no matter what the costs. I call this "entrepreneurship on steroids."
Watch this short YouTube video about an English entrepreneur and listen carefully to what he has to say about American entrepreneurs toward the very end of the clip.
Wealth is a good thing. It can create good outcomes for the entrepreneur, his employees, his investors, his community. But it should never be viewed as the only measure of success. For many entrepreneurs it is not even the main yardstick they use to measure their success.
What we don't need in the world is a bunch of narcissistic, one-dimensional, entrepreneurs "on steroids."
(Thanks to Jeff Williams for passing this clip along).
