P6
Entrepreneurial personality are very much important to remain always competitive in
marketplace, in that traits consist of attributes, skills and features that are bring by an individual.
To understand entrepreneurial mindset there are various kinds of theories and practices plays
very important role one of them are:
The big personality trait theory:
It is an important theory or practice in which five important essential traits and behaviour
of an individual personality to foster the personality in right manner.
Openness:
This big five personality trait in which consist of imagination and insights. An individual

( Schaper, 2016.). People are high in that trait have a great range of interest and adventurous
with creative also. In case of Peter Jones they are very creative in nature and curious to new
things with attributes to reach at desirable goals.
Conscientiousness:
In that category consist of level of thoughtfulness, impulse control and behaviour that

It is an attribute which defined as unhappiness, ill humour and affectional unstability and
citizenry are advanced in that attribute are swing in nature, anxiety and sadness always around
them. In that scenario Peter Jones and Alan sugar are low in that nature because it hinders self
interest of them.
By observing all these traits and characteristics that are very much potential for an
individual to remain always competitive in to marketplace. It can only possible after taking
insights and ideas from general factors that surrounds their environment. There are close
relationship in traits of an entrepreneur and their chosen profession that helps to become one of

Zuckerberg have to understand that people have different cultural values, so people are ready to
