Entrepreneurship: Process and Abilities

Philip D. Olson

Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice, 1985, vol. 10, issue 1, 25-31

Abstract: This study provides information about important entrepreneurial abilities. Initially, the activities that entrepreneurs undertake when starting new ventures are organized into a process. It is proposed that a useful framework for examining entrepreneurial abilities could be developed through two thinking modes that can be linked to these activities. One mode is characterized by intuitive, holistic and simultaneous thinking; the other, by rational, analytic and sequential processing.
