In the context of entrepreneurship, this illusion manifests in various ways:
Overconfidence in Market Knowledge: Entrepreneurs may assume they fully understand their target market, leading to inadequate market research and flawed business strategies. Underestimating Competition: Believing they have a unique and unbeatable product, entrepreneurs might overlook the strengths and strategies of their competitors. Ignoring Feedback: When entrepreneurs think they know best, they might dismiss valuable feedback from customers, investors, or mentors. Miscalculating Financial Needs: This bias can lead to poor financial planning, either underestimating costs or overestimating revenue, resulting in funding shortfalls.
