What skills should a startup have?

Question

Startups

Recently I asked a question on the topic of education in the field of IT.
The answers clarified the situation a little, but, nevertheless, I decided to reformulate the query:
What skills and abilities should a startup/entrepreneur in IT have?
What education base is needed (regardless of direction)?
What is the best way to get this education (in-person / remotely)?
Where is the best place to gain practical experience with little knowledge?

Answer 1

Startupper is not a profession and he has NO COMPETENCE!!
There is a web programmer, interface designer, designer, marketer, seo-optimizer - these are professions and they have competencies

Answer 2

he does not need education, especially Russian.
must be a cunning person to get the investors' money.

Answer 3

Mark, I'll try to answer your question.
And I’ll start from Dmitry’s comment about COMPETENCES. It’s really hard to single them out, but they are still there, however, it’s harder to measure them: leadership, the ability to organize yourself and the team, a vision for the future, the ability to sell (excellent communication skills), the ability to generate ideas and create valuable products ..
But in fact, I would like to go even further and ask the question: why only 4 percent? Why are only 4 percent of people entrepreneurs? And out of those 5 lucky ones who launched a business, by the age of 5 there is 1 left? Statistics, however.
Life experience suggests that almost nothing is important, except willpower. Yes, yes .. It is her! What kind of education? What are these skills? There are thousands and thousands of excuses .. I do not argue, it is useful to read a couple of worthwhile books, but more often there is a danger of turning into a bookworm, it is always easier than building a business. And now, when we have the Internet, it becomes ashamed to talk about the lack of information in general. Well, what is willpower? This is the ability to do what you have planned, to bring the work you have started to the end. Understanding your values, clear instructions on the way to your dream and fulfilling them, despite the obstacles that arise. Do you think the question of how to build your business would arise if any plans turned into actions and an inevitable result? God's state? Is this possible? Any dreams and fantasies, you just have to plan and..
Well, just a little is left, to reveal the very essence of Willpower. What is it that prevents us from being in a super-mega productive state and creating, creating, creating, as bequeathed to us by the Creator himself? I will not procrastinate for a long time .. It's all about the purity of our consciousness, soul, spirit, subconscious, aura, openness of the third eye. Everyone will choose for themselves. This joke is not a joke. We are very torn apart, like puppets with thousands of strings tied to us, each of which pulls in its own direction. These threads are our desires, or not ours, attitudes, psychological or bodily traumas that pull us into the past, or fears that plunge us into the future. And here it is, our consciousness, is torn into thousands of pieces, and is not here and now, but in all those that are listed. And this means that we are almost incapable of realizing this moment, which means that both make decisions and act too. We simply do not have enough consciousness for the tasks set by ourselves. Example: "I want a business. So, I know how to build websites. How to sell them? People need to sell, damn it.. But I don’t know how.. (But in fact, I'm scared, because a, b and c!)". And here your inner essence will deceive you and divert attention to anything, but not to the fact that you are faced with these thoughts and conversations about sales, and God forbid at all - go do it, you never know what ..
Is it being treated? Healing!)) Meditate! And take away pieces of your consciousness from the unopened edges of Pain. Develop, get out of your comfort zone, learn to feel and love, especially at such moments when it is almost impossible to do this. That's probably all.
As a literature on Willpower, I can recommend:
"Willpower. How to develop and strengthen" - McGonigal Kelly
