The Nature of Entrepreneur in the Perspective of Professor Musa Asy’arie’s Philoshopy of Existentialism

Abstract

Purpose: Humans are equipped by God with reason, and with their reason humans can think. If humans think deeply to find the root of a problem, then an entrepreneur is actually philosophizing to find the root of the problem of his business with a solution that is productive and beneficial for everyone involved. Theoretical framework: This study aims to explain a practical implementation of philosophy in relation to the foundation of thought, business choices and rationality as an entrepreneur who dares to take risks in his entrepreneurial activities in an existentialist manner. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study uses a descriptive qualitative method through a secondary data analysis approach. Findings: This research arrives at the conclusion that existentialist entrepreneurs see a creative and innovative work that will make them exist in society. Research, Practical & Social implications: This is because they tend to develop their potential, expertise, and credibility to become a product or work that is beneficial to humans without expecting excessive rewards. In fact, the reward for them is the essence of a useful life. Originality/Value: This study is expected to be a reference in the academic realm in the field of entrepreneurship formally. In addition, it is highly recommended to be applied to every individual character who will be an entrepreneur, as well as those who have started. Because, it is never too late to start something in order to get good for personal, family and among God's creations as social beings.
