Abstract: Entrepreneurs do not form a homogeneous set who can be distinguished from non-entrepreneurs on the basis of their personality characteristics. In Romania, the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) have a young history of 19 years behind. The present paper aims to outline the profile of the Romanian entrepreneur and to analyze the compatibility between the features of the entrepreneur’s behavior and those required by a Learning Organization. The results are based on a study performed in February and March 2009 on a sample of 200 respondents from different regions of the country and indicate a high potential for SMEs development in Romania.
