Abstract:
Highly turbulent environments require firms to act entrepreneurially. The returns to entrepreneurial activities are known as entrepreneurial rents. Following the payments perspective, these rents are allocated to the entrepreneurial resources of the firm as factor payments. However, unlike other factor payments, little is known about how to value these types of rents. An analysis of the economics and management literature reveals that entrepreneurial rents are a return to alertness, subjective judgment, asset control, and uncertainty bearing. Furthermore, entrepreneurial rents are noncontractible and temporary. This paper introduces two complementary valuation models that capture these characteristics and that explicitly impute value to various entrepreneurial activities.

Abstract:
The individual entrepreneurial behavior of employees represents one of the primary antecedents of Corporate Entrepreneurship. The complex nature of ‘employee entrepreneurial behavior’ suggests that a myriad of contextual influences act on the emergence of such behavior. It is imperative that theorists and practitioners alike understand both the subtle and sophisticated ways in which context influences employee entrepreneurial behavior. To address these issues and encourage future work, this study performs a systematic literature review to provide an overview of the field and examines the influence of the job/role, organizational/work and external contexts on employee entrepreneurial behavior. Findings suggest that employee entrepreneurial behavior is an emergent research field and that its behaviors can manifest themselves in different ways compared to firm-level entrepreneurial behaviors. We also show the sophisticated manner in which different types of context influence employee entrepreneurial behavior.

Abstract:
Acting entrepreneurially in nascent industries is a complex endeavor characterized by uncertainty and ambiguity. Nevertheless, entirely new industries do emerge, often as a direct result of entrepreneurial behavior. We extend and apply discovery and creation approaches to study entrepreneurial behavior during industry emergence by means of qualitative analysis of a film about the personal computer (PC) industry℉s formative years. We find that discovery and creation behavior are fundamentally interrelated and share a common element: bricolage. Moreover, ideological activism is a major component of entrepreneurial behavior in a new industry℉s formative years during both creation and discovery processes. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

Abstract:
Purpose This study aims to inculcate personality traits in theory of planned behaviour (TPB) and analyze mediation of perceived behavior control (PBC) and attitude toward entrepreneurship. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected with the help of a structured questionnaire from students at four universities located in capital city of Pakistan. SmartPLS has been used to run structural equation modeling technique. Findings Findings of PLS analysis revealed that the relationship between entrepreneurial intentions (EI) and personality traits was mediated by PBC and attitude toward entrepreneurship. Originality/value This study contributes toward the understanding of EI of students in Pakistan – a developing economy. More specifically, it sheds light on the vitality of personality traits in determining the antecedents of EI. Leaning on TPB and intention models, the study incorporated personality traits to unveil a unique and testable multidimensional model of EI, which supports the notion that external factors such as personality characteristics can indirectly affect EI. This research also supports the incorporation of personality traits in TPB and suggests that these socio cognitive theories should concede the indirect effect of personality on intention and behavior.

Abstract:
The emergence of opportunity is based on the intentions which are the result of people’s belief and the way of thinking. Entrepreneurial alertness is considered vital for identifying the opportunity which can have an impact on mindset for exploiting the opportunities. The objective of this study was to analyze the connection between opportunity identification and intentions formation through entrepreneurial alertness based on the theory of planned behavior. The data was collected from the 499 final year business students of nine universities from Sindh, Pakistan using cross-sectional survey. The results of this study revealed that entrepreneurial alertness has positive and significant effect on attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control and entrepreneurial intentions. The findings of this study contributed to the theory of planned behavior by taking entrepreneurial alertness as a predictor of entrepreneurial intentions. The findings also have implication for increasing the supply of entrepreneurial capital into the society.

Abstract:
How does the behavior of the entrepreneur affect the development and performance of the business venture? Why do some small business owner-managers remain small, when others wish to grow? In this dissertation the author tries to answer these questions by examining the importance of stable psychological characteristics of the entrepreneur on business performance and expected future performance. The author argues that the entrepreneurship research focus on the entrepreneurial personality is far too narrow, ignoring a crucial range of psychological factors such as intellectual ability and motivation that matter immensely in terms of how entrepreneurs act. Drawing on modern psychological and entrepreneurship research, the author shows how emotions, attitudes, values, IQ, and attribution affect the entrepreneurs’ behavior and subsequently the performance of the business. The author’s own research is presented and commented upon in six different research papers and in a comprehensive introduction chapter.

Abstract:

There are more self-made, billionaire entrepreneurs than billionaires who simply inherited their fortunes, but the majority of startup ventures fail within five years. A possible factor in business success or failure could be the emotional intelligence (EI) level of the entrepreneur, defined broadly as the ability to perceive, interpret, and manage emotions. Although there is substantial literature on EI applications in established organizations, there are few empirical studies exploring the predictive value of EI in the context of success for startup entrepreneurs. The purpose of this study was to determine whether EI scores can predict how successful an entrepreneur will be using objective success criteria, as defined in this study (Hypothesis 1), and which, if any, EI competencies are particularly relevant for entrepreneurs (Hypothesis 2). Hypotheses were tested using Spearman correlation and Ordinal regression, with sensitivity testing with Pearson correlation and Ordinary Least Squares regression, respectively. Each analysis controlled for the entrepreneur’s demographic profile and subjective success measures. Regression analysis (n=31); ordinal analysis and correlation analysis revealed a statistically significant effect of only one of the 15 EI scores (Empathy) on entrepreneurial success, as defined in this study, but the exponentiated coefficients from the ordinal regression indicate that improving Overall EI scores can increase Overall Success. Specifically, six of the 15 EI scores were more than two times more likely to increase Overall Success scores (Empathy, Interpersonal Relationships, Social Responsibility, Flexibility, Stress Tolerance, and Optimism), which is consistent with Hypothesis 2. This study is one of the first to empirically examine the EI construct in the context of entrepreneurial success with a population of entrepreneurs seeking assistance using the EQ-i 2.0 emotional intelligence assessment. A key implication of the results is that teachers, emergency services personnel, legal and financial services personnel, even sports coaches and single parents, can all develop competencies to make them more successful in their chosen endeavor, have a sense of fulfillment, and increase the success rate of industries that go far beyond entrepreneurs.

Micro-entrepreneurs and one-person business sector are important factors in the dynamics of emerging economies. In Brazil specifically, around 4,5 million of them are affiliated with direct selling companies. They are non-salaried; receive commissions on sales and work for themselves by setting their own hours and creating their own marketing plans. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between key entrepreneurial behaviors and sales performance among self-employed direct selling representatives in Brazil (SEDSR). Based on a quantitative approach, four independent variables were measured in a sample of 651 SEDSR: need of achievement (NA), self-efficacy (SE), risk-taking propensity (RP) and locus of control (LC). Dependent variable was business performance (Y1). An online survey was submitted to an email address database provided by a global direct selling company with operations in Brazil. Descriptive statistical and regression analysis were performed with the intent to determine first, the prevalence of each entrepreneur behavior, in a population that is traditionally pushed into direct selling by necessity and second, how each affects and predicts business performance. Results showed there is a high prevalence in terms of NA and SE, confirming these behaviors are not exclusive on successful and formal entrepreneurs. LC and RP receive medium score. Unexpectedly, results also show that none of the behaviors on its own have significant impact in predicting business performance. When putting the four behaviors into one only single regression model correlation increases slightly but not enough to make results conclusive. Through main effect plot analysis, results also suggest SE and NA are the biggest influencer factors in business success of a SEDSR. Finally, analyzing the best interactions of the variables allowed building a profile to achieve the maximum business performance. This study attempts to contribute to the academic field of the entrepreneurship and has practical implications in direct selling industry. On the first, it contributes to the existing body of knowledge on the direct selling entrepreneurship and specifically, to the conceptual debate if SEDSR should or should not be defined as micro-entrepreneurs per se and not simply, as sales distributors as some authors defend. On the second, this study provided insights to direct selling managers that could use to improve recruitment and engagement process of their independent sales force. Further studies need to include other variables besides entrepreneurial behavior to better understand and predict business performance and how enable SEDSR to transition from necessity-driven entrepreneurship to opportunity-driven.
Micros empreendedores e o setor de negócios unipessoais são fatores importantes na dinâmica de economias emergentes. No Brasil especificamente, em torno de 4,5 milhões deles são afiliados com empresas de vendas diretas. Eles são não assalariados, mas recebem comissões sobre as vendas e trabalham para si próprios, definindo suas próprias horas de trabalho e criando seus próprios planos de marketing. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a relação entre o comportamento empreendedor e o desempenho de vendas desse representante independente da venda direta no Brasil (SEDSR). Baseado em uma abordagem quantitativa, quatro variáveis independentes foram medidas em uma amostra de 651 revendedores: necessidade de logro (NA), auto eficácia (SE), propensão a assumir riscos (RP) e lócus de controle (LC). A variável dependente foi o desempenho de vendas (Y1). Uma pesquisa online foi submetida a uma lista de e-mail fornecida por uma empresa de venda direta global, com operações no Brasil. Análise descritivas e regressões estatísticas foram realizadas com o intuito de determinar, primeiro, a predominância de cada comportamento empreendedor em uma população que tradicionalmente atua na venda direta por necessidade. Segundo, como cada um desses comportamentos afetam e prevêem o desempenho empresarial. Os resultados mostraram que há uma alta predominância em termos de ND e SE, confirmando que esses comportamentos não são exclusivos em empresários bem sucedidos e formais, já LC e RP receberam pontuação média. Inesperadamente, os resultados também mostram que nenhum dos comportamentos por si só tem um impacto significativo na previsão de desempenho de negócios. Quando considerados os quatro comportamentos em um único modelo de regressão, a correlação aumenta ligeiramente, mas não o suficiente para tornar os resultados conclusivos. Por meio da análise do gráfico de efeitos principais, os resultados sugeriram que SE e AT são os maiores fatores influenciadores no sucesso empresarial de um SEDSR. Finalmente, a análise das melhores interações entre as variáveis permitiu a construção de um perfil para o desempenho máximo do negócio. Por fim este estudo buscou contribuir com o campo acadêmico sobre empreendedorismo e propôs implicações práticas na indústria de venda direta. Em primeiro lugar, contribuiu para o acervo de conhecimentos sobre empreendedorismo na venda direta e especificamente para o debate conceitual sobre o SEDSR, se deve ou não ser definido como microempresários e não simplesmente como distribuidores de vendas como alguns autores defendem. Em segundo lugar, este estudo forneceu dados para que gestores da venda direta possam melhorar o processo de recrutamento e o engajamento de sua força de vendas independente. Mais estudos poderiam considerar outras variáveis além do comportamento empreendedor para melhor compreender e prever o desempenho dos negócios e como capacitar o SEDSR a realizar a transição de empreendedorismo orientado à necessidade para a orientação à oportunidade.

Abstract:
Paper one tests the self-efficacy part of the theory of planned behavior, for which the paper finds empirical support. Further, it is found that self-efficacy is increased through participation in business plan competitions, and that this affects the self-efficacy of women more than that of men. Learning institutions and governments should, as a result, focus more on self-efficacy by introducing more and better business plan competitions. Further, adapting these to better fit the needs of women will contribute to fully utilizing the entrepreneurial potential, spurring more economic growth. Paper two explores the relation between learning obtained during Venture Cup and the increase in entrepreneurial intention and involvement. The findings suggest a difference in the effect the various learning modules have on entrepreneurial intention, providing implications for both practitioners and future studies. The implications for the former are an open-ended contingency model for organizing business plan courses in a more dynamic manner. Our contribution to this model is a differentiation of the learning modules. In addition, this study contributes to expand the theory of planned behavior by adding an additional predictor, the learning effect obtained during a business course.

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO
O contexto atual do mundo dos negócios exige mudanças contínuas nas empresas e conduz à necessidade de administradores cujo perfil se estenda além da formação acadêmica tradicional, exigindo qualidades comportamentais adicionais, bem como visão abrangente do mundo. A formação e o conhecimento de processos, métodos e técnicas de gestão são fatores necessários, mas não suficientes, para o enfrentamento dos desafios atuais: faz-se necessária, também, uma postura que identifique oportunidades e promova transformações. Diante do exposto, e a partir da observação de uma lacuna na literatura de administração brasileira, o propósito final dessa dissertação consistiu em discutir de que forma o comportamento empreendedor, desenvolvido pela capacitação empreendedora, associa-se à conduta inovadora, assim como clarificar a relação entre o comportamento empreendedor e o comportamento empresarial sustentável. A possível articulação entre os três eixos comportamentais decorreu do fato de ser possível identificar características comuns ao comportamento empreendedor, à conduta inovadora e ao comportamento empresarial sustentável. Para tanto, adotou-se para esse estudo uma alegação de conhecimento construtivista com a intenção de desenvolver um padrão de significado e entender, interpretar e perceber o seu sentido. O tipo de pesquisa adotada foi descritiva e explicativa por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica e telematizada. Como resultado do estudo, propõese uma esquematização e uma associação, que mais do que somente demonstrar uma simples aproximação entre os temas, sugere uma inter-relação entre a capacitação empreendedora, o comportamento empreendedor, a conduta inovadora, o comportamento empresarial sustentável e a sustentabilidade empresarial.
The current context of the business world demands continuous changes in business and leads to the need for administrators whose profile extends beyond the traditional academic training, requiring additional behavioral qualities, and comprehensive view of the world. The formation and knowledge of processes, methods and techniques of management are necessary but not sufficient to face the current challenges: it is necessary an approach that identifies opportunities and promotes changes. In this light, and from the observation of a gap in the literature of the Brazilian administration, the ultimate purpose of this dissertation was to discuss how entrepreneurial behavior, developed by entrepreneurial education, is associated with innovative behavior and to clarify the relationship between entrepreneurial behavior and business sustainable behavior. The possible connection between the three main behavior due to the fact it is possible to identify common characteristics of entrepreneurial behavior, innovative behavior and business sustainable behavior. To this end, it was adopted for this study an allegation of constructive knowledge with the intention to develop a pattern of meaning and understand, interpret and understand its meaning. The type of research adopted was descriptive and explanatory by means of literature and internet sources. As a result of the study, it was proposed a layout and an association, more than just show a simple approach between the subjects, it suggests an interrelationship between entrepreneurial education, entrepreneurial behavior, innovative behavior, business sustainable behavior and business sustainability.

Abstract:

The role of entrepreneurship and innovation in K–12 education continues to evolve. As more reform efforts come and go, it is clear that little has changed despite billions of dollars invested in these efforts. Education leaders are being asked to leverage entrepreneurial and innovative solutions to transform the K–12 education environment to meet the needs of a modern society and workplace. Consequently, there is an urgent need to expand the boundaries of possibilities for improving public education. Identifying the essential practices of executive education leaders is of particular importance to K–12 education which is under increasing pressure to provide better equity of resources, do more with less, close the student achievement gap, and prepare students for a future where most jobs have yet to be defined. To meet this challenge, executive education leaders must leverage and implement key entrepreneurial and innovation practices. The purpose of the study was to identify and understand the practices of executive level leaders in California County Offices of Education. The study was designed using the Delphi method approach of identification, shared evaluation, re-evaluation, and finally consensus among the executives to identify the essential entrepreneurial and innovation practices of education leaders. At the conclusion of the process, 15 executives identified 13 opportunity recognition, leadership, and staff practices they believe to be essential to support entrepreneurship and innovation in education. The 2 opportunity recognition skills were: (a) collaboration, (b) future-focus. The 8 leadership practices were: (a) articulate vision, (b) promote healthy organization culture, (c) flexibility, (d) life-long learning, (e) relationship building, (f) actively seek opportunities, (g) decisive. The 3 staff practices were: (a) trust, (b) flexibility, (c) drive. A key finding of the study was the identification of 3 overarching practices spanning opportunity recognition, leadership, and staff: (a) collaboration, (b) flexibility, and (c) future-focused. The essential practices identified in this study assist leaders in strengthening and transforming education organizations. By focusing on the identified essential practices, leaders are able to meet the challenges and complexity evident in today’s K–12 education environment, and create organizations where entrepreneurship and innovation can thrive in support of student learning.

Abstract:
This study analyzed the relationship between emotional competencies and entrepreneurial intention in final-year undergraduate students of public higher education institutions in Ecuador, supported by an extended model of Ajzen's Theory of planned behavior (1991). The results were derived from a questionnaire applied to students in the last semester of degrees involving academic business training. To analyze the results, structural equation modeling (SEM) was used. The findings show that emotional competencies are significant factors in the configuration of entrepreneurial intentions and have a direct and positive relationship with their cognitive precursors: entrepreneurial attitude and self-efficacy. It is suggested that students with a higher degree of emotional competencies cope better with the cognitive bias that can make it difficult to recognize business opportunities. The main contribution of this study was to generalize the results that have been obtained in the use of emotional competencies to promote the intentionality of entrepreneurship in the contexts of emerging economies.
Este estudio analizó el poder explicativo de las competencias emocionales y su relación con la intención emprendedora de los estudiantes de pregrado de último año de las instituciones de educación superior públicas de Ecuador, respaldados por un modelo extendido de la teoría del comportamiento planificado de Ajzen (1991). Los resultados se derivaron de un cuestionario dirigido a estudiantes del último semestre de las carreras con formación académica empresarial los cuales fueron sometidos a análisis de ecuaciones estructurales (MES). Los hallazgos mostraron que las competencias emocionales son factores significativos en la configuración de las intenciones emprendedoras y su relación directa y positiva con los antecedentes cognitivos de la actitud empresarial y a la autoeficacia. Se sugiere que los estudiantes con mayor grado de competencias emocionales enfrentan de mejor manera el sesgo cognitivo que puede dificultar el reconocimiento de oportunidades empresariales. La principal contribución de este estudio fue dar mayor generalidad a los resultados que se han obtenido en el uso de las competencias emocionales para fomentar la intencionalidad de emprendimiento en contextos de economías emergentes.

Abstract:
The field of entrepreneurship is rapidly advancing and matures as a discipline that receives substantial amount of attention. One popular area of research in the discipline of entrepreneurship is to investigate one’s intent to start a business, which is entrepreneurial intention. This is an important construct that warrants ongoing research because entrepreneurial intention is not only a great predictor of entrepreneurial behavior but also an important step in the process of becoming an entrepreneur. The present study, based on a sample of 321 subjects along with 264 observers, makes five contributions to the entrepreneurship literature. First, I examined the psychometric property of entrepreneurial take-over intention and found that it is a construct different from entrepreneurial start-up intention. Second, the results demonstrated that risk propensity and proactive personality are positive predictors of entrepreneurial start-up and take-over intentions, whereas cognitive ability is a negative predictor of entrepreneurial start-up and take-over intentions. Rebelliousness is a positive predictor of entrepreneurial take-over intention and also has an inverted U-shaped relationship with entrepreneurial take-over intention. Third, entrepreneurial self-efficacy mediates the relationship between three individual traits (i.e., emotional intelligence, risk propensity, and proactive personality) and entrepreneurial start-up and take-over intentions. Need for cognition mediates the relationship between two individual traits (i.e., cognitive ability and proactive personality) and entrepreneurial start-up intention. Fourth, 2D:4D ratio (a proxy measure for prenatal testosterone exposure level) negatively predicts risk propensity. There also exist two two-step mediations from 2D:4D ratio to both entrepreneurial start-up and take-over intentions through risk propensity and entrepreneurial self-efficacy. Fifth, the results suggest that observer ratings of individual traits only contribute modest incremental validity above and beyond self-reported ratings of them in predicting entrepreneurial start-up and take-over intentions. I discuss implications, limitations, and future directions informed by the present study.

Abstract:

This research study examined the relationship between entrepreneurial bricolage and environmental dynamism, contributing to the knowledge base of the resource-based theory. Specifically, this study examined the influence perceived environmental dynamism has on entrepreneurial bricolage while controlling for the firm’s annual revenue, number of employees, age, industry and business experience, and educational level. Prior research has identified firms with higher levels of entrepreneurial bricolage overcome resource limitations through innovation, a primary component of competitive advantage. Prior research has also identified firms that function efficiently in rapidly changing environments demonstrate stronger dynamic capabilities and higher levels of innovation. In addition, previous research has identified entrepreneurial bricolage and environmental dynamism, separately, positively impact innovation; however, no identified research has examined these constructs together within the parameters of this research study. This research study utilized multiple linear regression to analyze the data used to test the hypotheses related to the research questions. The primary research question examined in this study was to what extent does Environmental Dynamism Index (IV) explain variations in the Entrepreneurial Bricolage Index (DV), controlling for Annual Revenue (CV), Number of Employees (CV), Firm Age (CV), Industry Experience (CV), Business Experience (CV), and Education Level (CV). The population for this study included businesses located in the United States in the business services sector (SIC 73) with fewer than 100 employees and annual revenue below $5 million. Results identified perceived environmental dynamism was a statistically significant predictor of entrepreneurial bricolage; no statistically significant relationship was identified between all control variables (annual revenue, number of employees, firm age, business experience, and education level) and entrepreneurial bricolage. Findings of this study suggested that firms operating in environments of greater perceived environmental dynamism demonstrated greater use of entrepreneurial bricolage. This research study was limited in population and did not include all constructs of the Environmental Dynamism Scale; further research is recommended examining the relationship between environmental dynamism and entrepreneurial bricolage in various industries and cultures. In addition, future research is recommended examining these constructs using all constructs included in the Environmental Dynamism Scale.
