Assuming subjects and skills refer to book-learned knowledge rather than life experience: I'm trying to decide what to study in college or through MOOCs like those offered by EdX or Coursera or whether or not I should choose a business or a non-business major. I am trying to decide what to focus on. If I self-studied instead, I wouldn't have any debt from my degree but could still need a degree for other reasons. What specific topics are essential for entrepreneurs to know? For example, there's a lot to learn as a finance major and I'm not sure which topics would be relevant for entrepreneurship. I've tried thinking about it in other ways, for example: "What should a successful entrepreneur/CEO be able to do?" and tried to figure out which subjects will teach me the skills I'll need to achieve those goals.
Sales and marketing will always be two skills very very high in the scale of nessecity but my opinion is that due to the fact that we are experiencing the electronic/technological evolution age a new group of skills climbing up the scale and taking first places. I believe that It is necessary to all entrepreneurs to develop digital skils such as "Digital marketing" , "e-commerce" , etc.
