Approaches on Entrepreneur’s Personality
Trait approach (Personality / Dispositional approach)
Studying personality traits and characteristics (WHO is an entrepreneur)
Looking at stable psychological traits
Inspired by results in psychology during 1960s – 80s
There is no single ‘entrepreneurial personality’ 4 Entrepreneurial traits
Personality is a function of different things (characteristics)
PROBLEMS
- Does not always seem to fit reality
- Risk averse VS risk seeking not taking into account
- People are born with ‘it’
- Easy to be tempted into selection bias (you just choose the people you WANT to study, good
characteristics)
Behavioral approach (Social-Cognitive approach)
Studying WHAT entrepreneurs do, rather than who they are
Looking at the actions/strategics taken by entrepreneurs
Cognitive approach, perception & social interactions
Behavior and skills, grooming competency are MORE important than personality
You can work with your competences and develop those
Self-efficacy
The belief in your ability to perform a certain task will increase your changes in succeeding
It can be trained
LEARNING PERSPECTIVE
- Personality changes and develops in response to and to accommodate, experience
(Interactions and grooming creates personality)
- This perspective is compatible with a behaviorist perspective
- It is also compatible with a self-motivated learning perspective
- Personality is revealed through stimulus-response correlations
Biological approach
Genetics make up / competitions makes personality
Similarities between twins (100% genetic composition of identical twins, 50% “” fraternal twins
on average)
Study confirms genetic disposition towards entrepreneurship
