Mediating effect of happiness and resilience between emotional intelligence and small business success
http://www.inderscience.com/link.php?id=136295
Anchored in the theory of productive and happy workers, this study analysed the mediating effect of subjective happiness and resilience between emotional intelligence (EI) and entrepreneurial success. The sample consisted of 152 small entrepreneurs mentored by the Centro de Desarrollo de Negocios (CDN) in Biobio Province, Chile. Three scales previously validated at the national level were applied and linear regression and structural equation models were used to test the different hypotheses. The main results show that there is a partial mediating effect of subjective happiness and resilience on the relationship between EI and business success affecting three indicators of business success: self-perception of success, years of seniority in the company and income level. The practical implications refer to governmental policies to support entrepreneurs, which should consider support and encouragement in psychological domains.

How valuable are personal values? Investigating personal values and their effect on entrepreneurial performance
http://www.inderscience.com/link.php?id=136300
Personal values represent fundamental motivations, expressing what humans consider to be important in their lives. This study explores the relationship between founders' personal values and the performance of new ventures, considering the moderating impact of the new venture's lifecycle. To do so, we use the refined theory of basic individual values proposed by Shalom Schwartz. Using structural equation modelling and data of 250 entrepreneurs, empirical results point to a strong support for the positive effects of individual <i>personal focus</i> values on performance. Furthermore, a robust moderating effect of life cycle stage suggests that entrepreneurs' personal values play a crucial role predominantly in early life cycle phases of the new venture. With these results, we advance current research by providing empirical evidence for person-related deep-level antecedents of performance obtaining data from factual entrepreneurs.

The effect of leadership style and motivation element on entrepreneurial tendencies amongst students at a public higher education institution
http://www.inderscience.com/link.php?id=136298
Various leadership strategies and styles have evolved into commercial practises over the last few years, but the problem of finding the suitable leadership style, particularly for university students in Malaysia, remains unsolved. Therefore, this study is to identify the type of leadership style and motivation with entrepreneurial tendencies of students at the National Defence University of Malaysia (NDUM). A total of 350 undergraduate students completed the questionnaire through the online platform. The data were analysed using descriptive and inferential analysis. According to the findings, the dominating leadership style is democratic, and the biggest motivating aspect is the desire for personal achievement. The highest entrepreneurial tendency element was locus control. The research findings also show that the three factors can create an effective environment in which students can understand their leadership style and further build a network to plan the future in enterprise and entrepreneurship in order to strengthen human resources in Malaysia's industry and education sectors.

Fear of failure and entrepreneurship: a systematic literature review
http://www.inderscience.com/link.php?id=136297
Recent research has found a link between fear of failure and entrepreneurship. To comprehend the phenomena and close research gaps, more specific inputs are needed. This study reviews the literature on fear of failure in entrepreneurship to inform future entrepreneurship research. To do this, the researchers conducted a thorough search to uncover 25 congruent research studies for evaluation and critical synthesis. The publications reviewed revealed a scarcity of research on the relationship between fear of failure and entrepreneurship. The key themes of antecedents and outcomes include entrepreneurial networks and skills for antecedents and entrepreneurial behaviour, entrepreneurial decision-making, impact on potential entrepreneurs and impact on cognitive skills for outcomes. A separate category for construct conceptualisation and scale development was also included. Apart from the categorisation of antecedents and outcomes, the present study offers future research avenues of researches in the concerned area by offering possible research gaps.
