  • Entrepreneurs’ actions and venture success

    Open AccessSusan Müller, Alyssa Lara Kirst et al.ARTICLESmall Business Economics2023

    It is the actions of entrepreneurs that give rise to new organizations. However, a comprehensive understanding of what entrepreneurs do and what actually leads to venture success is currently lacking.

Implications can be drawn for university cultures and particularly administrators and faculty as well as for agents of econom…

  • Implementing Entrepreneurial Ideas

    Bruce Bird, Barbara BirdARTICLEAcademy of Management Review1988

    Although entrepreneurial ideas begin with inspiration, intention and attention are needed to realize the ideas. This analysis focuses on the conscious and intended act of creating a firm, but less on the action than the psychological precursors to that act. Entrepreneurial intentions are directed at creating a new venture or new values in existing ones. Studying intention directs theory toward the complex relationships among entrepreneurial ideas…
