Abstract

This chapter reports on the testing of informational entrepreneurship by three very different population samples—(1) MBA students, (2) the working poor, and (3) technically trained employees of a large corporation—which is really a test of what is possible, when attempting to identify entrepreneurial discoveries. Its appendix contains the protocols for the testing. It demonstrates how all of the subjects were trained to use specific information to find discoveries at a rate that was always more effective than the extant prescription to stay alert. Also, this chapter operationalizes training protocols for employing constrained, systematic search, which can be copied by aspirants who wish to become informational entrepreneurs.
