GİRİŞİMCİLİK BAŞARISINI ETKİLEYEN UNSURLAR: KİŞİLİK ÖZELLİKLERİ BAĞLAMINDA BİR ANALİZ

Girişimci kişilik özellikleri, girişimcilik eğilimi (niyeti) ve girişimsel davranışların kavramsal boyutlarını anlamada baskın değişkenler olarak ortaya çıkar. Girişimcilerin kişisel özelliklerinin geliştirilmesine yönelik yaklaşımlar, girişim niyetinin ve arzusunun bireysel ölçekte modellenebilmesi için temel ve belirleyici bir öneme sahiptir. Özünde, iş girişimlerinin büyüme, kârlılık ve sürdürülebilirlik boyutları girişimcilerin karakter özelliklerine bağlıdır. Büyük beşli kişisel özellik (deneyime açıklık, kendini bilme, dışa dönüklük, uzlaşılabilirlik, kaygı durumu) perspektifine ek olarak; kontrol odağı, başarı ihtiyacı, risk alma eğilimi, yaratıcılık gibi geniş yelpazedeki kişilik özellikleri de girişimin tüm süreçlerine doğrudan ve çok büyük ölçüde olumlu anlamda etki ederler. Kişilik özellikleri ayrıca, kişinin girişimcilik faaliyetlerine girme ve bırakma eğilimleri üzerinde etki sahibi olduğu gibi, girişimleri sürdürme ve geliştirme sürecinde de belirleyici unsurlardır. Bu çalışmada nitel araştırma yaklaşımı kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın bulguları, adı geçen girişimci özelliklerinin girişimci başarısını nasıl etkilediğini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Ayrıca, girişimcilik kişilik özelliklerinin öngörülebilir boyutu, burada ortaya konulmuş çıkarımların ebeveynler ve eğitimciler için kritik ve öncül veriler sağladığını göstermiştir.
