INTRODUCTION Commercial banks provide services such as savings, life insurances, loans, etc. to consumers in the economic field. Costumers trust commercial banks with their money instead of keeping it to themselves that’s why they deposit and get debit accounts. Banks also allow customers to borrow money or loan. Loans are partnered with interest wherein this way a bank gain profit or income. Commercial banks offer costumers convenience because of other services such as online banking, change foreign currency, administer and guide costumers will and testaments, etc. Paul Medwick, a commercial banker, received loan application from three entrepreneurs in the past month. The three entrepreneurs have emerging businesses with strong potential. Paul will only accept one loan acts application that is why he also wants to consider the three entrepreneur’s attitude and personality. He then assigned Professor Jane Jackson, banks outside consultant, to interview the three candidates. After the interview, Jane came up with five problem statements: 1. Who possess great entrepreneurial attitudes and mindset? 2. Who possess least entrepreneurial attitudes and mindset? 3. To whom loan application will be accepted? Why? 4. The three entrepreneurs have flaws; in what area (attitudes) should they make improvement? 5. Who will most likely to maintain a successful business after 5 years? First, during interview conduct self-assessment and eligibility. Get to know your applicant’s basic information such as name, address, family background. Provide real life situations on how they will handle or deal with it. Second, financial inspection and house hunting. Identify what type of business he has. Check his documents if its legal or not, and tax forms if he regularly pays tax. Third, after interview, conduct review and reflect. Review whether the candidate has meet the standards the bank has. Reflect if the candidate would be able to pay the loan during the given time. Fourth, analysis and conceptualization. Submit a proposal to the bank owner. Consider different point of views before making a decision. Fifth, inform applicants whether they have been chosen or not. Meet the chosen applicant together with the bank owner. Then, present terms and conditions of the loan and to the applicant such needed documents and collateral should be passed. Lastly, approval will be given by the bank owner. The bank will lend money to the applicant. In the coming months and years, the applicant has now the responsibility to pay the loan with interest. Based on the gathered data regarding among the three entrepreneurs, Phil Hartack has the greatest entrepreneurial attitudes and mindset because he has high persistent in problem solving, high tolerance in ambiguity and high integrity and reliability. Suppose Phil encounters a problem in his business high chances are, he will be able to handle it well and make solution right away without any hesitations. On the other hand, Robin Wood possessed least because he has low tolerance for ambiguity, medium creativity and innovativeness, medium initiative and persistent problem solving and medium drive to achieve. Robin, will have a hard time dealing with unexpected situation and he may be left behind in the business world because he isn’t creative enough. Richard Trumpe’s application form might be accepted because he is highest in drive to achieve high tolerance for failure and highest innovativeness and creativeness. When you’re running a business with people’s demand, creating innovative and new products is needed. High tolerance of failure means, Trumpe will not give up easily. He will surely be goal driven in accomplishing his vision. Paul Medwick can trust him with the money. People have flaws and regarding with Robin Wood, he should improve his tolerance for ambiguity and persistent in problem solving. Meanwhile, Richard Trumpe must improve his integrity and reliability and persistent in problem solving. Finally, Phill Hartack have to improve his drive to achieve ability and creativity and innovativeness. Upon checking the demands in everyday life, Richard Trumpe will likely to maintain his business after 5 years because of his creativeness and regarding to his business, the ten-minute-oil-change-and lube operation is highly practical in keeping up with other business. There are lots of transportation nowadays that is why his business is more needed than the other two businesses. Therefore, based on the gathered data of Professor Jane Jackson and her analysis, Paul will or likely to choose the application form of Richard Trumpe because of his great interactionism. And as the owner of the bank, Paul must think what business can have more income to pay back the money that the applicant borrowed. RECOMMENDATION The situation that was given is quiet challenging to conclude without enough information. Checking documents of the businesses of the applicants is not enough figures to trust and to release the money that was requested. In this case, attitude and abilities is more important, and attitude is very subjective. Giving real life situations are significant to trace and reflect who could Paul Medwick actually trust his money without any failure of paying him back. As Jane Jackson’s evaluates her records, she could endorse someone that is risk taker, creative, innovative and has high tolerance for failure, and in terms with the business, it is practical to choose industry that is not seasonal or it is in the checklist of everyone, and with the three applicants, Richard Trumpe has the highest possibility to be accepted.
