Abstract: A characteristic feature of most educational and training programmes directed to developing entrepreneurship is a marked accent on moulding the person ality of the participant. Declaring this to be an ill-effect of the achievement motivation approach, the author finds this emphasis to be 'wrong-headed'. According to him, the curriculum for entrepreneurship education must have a larger input of knowledge and skills instead of being preoccupied with be haviour modification. Giving a tentative list of the competencies the entre preneur must possess, he pleads for discovering a 'science' of entrepreneurship development through intensive research.
