There are various entrepreneurship themes which can be adopted by an Atos Consulting
in order to improve the performance and generate the revenues as well as market share within
the market. These themes also helps in obtaining various competitive advantages(Bhachu,2017).
These Entrepreneurship themes are essential for the functioning and success of an organisation.
The different Entrepreneurship themes are listed below-
 Do not listen to any negative comment.

 Helping others
 Learn from others

 Do not stop until the goal is achieved.
 Set new objectives.
 Maintaining healthy relations.
 Snatch the opportunities.
 Do not fear from doing mistakes.
 Developing Innovations time to time.
 Hire skilled and talented employees
 Work in a same direction for gaining experience.
 Creative use of mind.
These are the various themes of the entrepreneurship which are important for each and every
organisation to start the business and its operations. Starting a new firm or business will require
the use of these themes to develop itself and maintaining the stability in the market. Two of these
themes are as follows -
Do not fear from doing mistakes – Every organisation or business lead to some or the other
mistakes during the start up or execution of the business. This theme states that the entrepreneur
should be afraid of doing the mistakes, as people learn from their mistakes. Everything in the
start may not be perfect, organisation or business set up and execution is a complicated and not
so easy process. Atos Consulting set up and execution has many risks which need to be
considered. But in order to gain success and start a business the entrepreneur needs to take these
risks and move ahead. The Entrepreneur should not be afraid or have any fear of making
mistakes or errors as everyone does that at the start. These mistakes helps them to learn from the
experience. Gaining experience from the mistakes is very important for the entrepreneurs for the
future growth and development and the mistakes once done can be a lesson for the entrepreneur
as well as the organisation. The Entrepreneur should face the and accept the mistakes with
bravery and make plans or changes in the functions to avoid those mistakes in the
future(Burns,2014). This helps the organisation to perform in a better way in the future as the
Entrepreneur already know the consequences of the mistakes he made earlier. Making various
mistakes and errors helps the Entrepreneur to learn something new and important elements or
4

aspects of the mistakes which help in gaining knowledge about the Atos Consulting functions
and the areas he need to develop his knowledge, strategies and techniques in the organisational
operations.
The “Do not fear from mistakes” theme of entrepreneurship therefore states that the
entrepreneur of an organisation should take the risk and start an organisation without any fear of
making mistakes, and furthermore, He or she should eventually learn from the mistakes or errors
he makes while executing an organisation and its operations. Mistakes will help them new things
and plans to avoid those mistakes in the future. This theme can be a motivational and inspiring
factor or element for an entrepreneur for attaining the Atos Consulting objectives.
Snatch the Opportunities – Every organisation or entrepreneur gets various opportunities in
the market for achievement of the goals and objectives. The Entrepreneur should focus on these
opportunities in the market and plan the best and effective ways to grab those opportunities.
Every organisation has many rivals or competitors in the business environment who are also
willing to grab the opportunities available in the market. In order to be ahead and attain success
the entrepreneur should ensure that his or her organisation snatch the opportunities from the
competitors before they grab it. This theme refers to winning the competition, which refers to the
garbing of various significant opportunities in the market. If the entrepreneur or the Atos
Consulting let go the opportunities available can lead to a future regret and loss of the
organisation. The opportunities are very important for each and every organisation to develop,
grow and obtain success by achieving their organisational goals. Every Entrepreneur should
make effective plans and strategies to snatch the existing as well future opportunities in the
market which can helps the organisation to grow and attain success in the business or industry.
Opportunities if gone once can be a huge loss to every organisation as they are grabbed by the
competitors to improve and develop their business which can be a threat(Alberti,2014).
This theme states the importance of grabbing the opportunities in the market available for
the success of the organisation and growing the business effectively by using the opportunities in
the best possible way before the competitors of Atos Consulting take the first step towards those
significant opportunities.

objectives of the organisation. It also includes the changes and modification required within an
