Introduction (Lecture 1)
This lecture talks mainly about Article 1: The discipline of innovation (Drucker, 1985)
What is entrepreneurship and who are entrepreneurs?
Entrepreneurship is the pursuit of opportunity beyond resources controlled (stevenson and
jarillo, 1989; Dubini & Aldrich, 1991) ((Relentless focus, novel offering))
- applies to many different contexts ( startups, corporates, non profits)
- Emphasis on a set of behaviors rather than who is the entrepreneurial actor.
Different perspectives of entrepreneurship
- Occupational: Self-employed individuals
- Structural: small/young organizations
- Functional: Alertness towards profit opportunities, Judgement under uncertainty
(make strategic decisions in an uncertain environment)
Sources of novel opportunities
Within organizations and industries:
- unexpected occurrences → Unexpected successes, failures, and external events that
should not have happened but open the door for asking can i make something out of
this?
- Incongruencies → Differences between what ought to be between what is and what
everybody assumes it to be; likely to emerge qualitatively form observation
- process needs → A job to be done on a process to create, redesign, improve or perfect
it; usually targets problems and tasks widely recognized as problematic
- industry and market changes → Changes in consumer habits/preferences/desires, in
the way things work within a given sector, or in the structure of an industry (e.g.,
incumbents vs new entrants)
Outside organizations and industries:
- Demographic changes → Changes in population, its size, age structure, composition,
employment, educational status and income
- Changes in perception → Changes in the meaning of people ascribe to a fact or set of
facts, which affects the way they see themselves and or the environment; important to
seize and leverage momentum
2
, - New knowledge → New scientific, technical or social knowledge becoming available
that can be distilled into usable technology and commercialized as product, process
or service.
The individual environment relationship
Starting a new business is a highly personal decision that depends on and reflects:
- Individuals drive, competence and motivation
- Perceptions of local business opportunities and the ease of starting a business
- Awareness of one's own skills and abilities
New entrepreneurs create business within a context including:
- Social values and frameworks that may promote or hinder entrepreneurial mindset.
- Ecosystem that may provide or restrict access to resources, including finance and
expertise,
There is always a relationship between why people decide to start a business and the
environment they are embedded in.
Startups failure
Very difficult to find accurate failure data worldwide (survival bias), but some well-known
statistics report that:
- 9 out of 10 startups eventually fail (startup Genome)
- 2 out of 3 startups never deliver positive return to investors (Harvard Business Review)
Article 1: The discipline of innovation (Drucker, 1985)
Abstract
The recent empirical studies have shown the positive impact of a scientific approach to
decision-making on entrepreneurial performance. Building on this evidence, this article offers
a description of the scientific approach that is oriented toward its practical implementation
by entrepreneurs. Focusing on the approach's two main pillars – the processes of theory
building and evidence gathering – we outline a set of tools developed to facilitate the
application of the scientific approach in practical decision-making activities. Ultimately, we
derive a set of design principles that researchers can adopt to develop novel tools and
methodologies to aid entrepreneurial actions based on the prescriptive aspects of the
scientific approach.
