Just to add to the fantastic answers above, I would say that being innovative and entrepreneurial at trainee level is also about proactivity and taking initiative, rather than running your own client portfolio. Trainees who spot ways to improve process or suggest practical solutions are actively contributing to the team's efficiency and success.Even small ideas, such as streamlining process or offering fresh perspectives, can save time and improve outcomes. During my time as a paralegal, some of my main feedback was to be more proactive - thinking ahead about how I could support those supervising me, spotting potential issues early, or coming up with new ways to handle tasks more efficiently. This is especially true where some firms (including the one I was at) haven't updated processes in a while (particularly following COVID), so bringing in fresh ideas or suggesting improvements is something that is really valued!Therefore, I'd say that whilst trainees aren't expected to drive business or lead projects, showing some initiative and suggesting creative improvements is how these entrepreneurial and innovative traits are shown <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
