| Abstract: | To analyse the attitudes of the 16-18 years olds to self-employment as a career option, 29 schools in Northern Ireland were surveyed. The following results were founded: (1) almost half of responses expressed a positive desire to run a business of their own eventually; (2) the pupils are fully aware of the risks, pitfalls, rewards and training and personal development needs involved in the start-up process; (3) young people show a down to earth appreciation of self-employment and its pluses and minuses which might be argued better for the future of the small business in the 1990s and beyond. |
