The context, scale, and intensity of global competition demands that firms, in order to gain sustainable competitive advantages, adopt proactive, innovative strategies. Impact-making and pioneering innovations require a global perspective, a scientific temper, and teamwork. Such path-breaking entrepreneurship is possible through high potential individuals who would need to have not only an ability to think through logically but also be innovative.
