301 Seiten, Dissertation Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (2016), Softcover, A5

Zusammenfassung / Abstract

This dissertation includes three papers contributing to the international discussion about entrepreneurial competence. To examine whether CHAT is applicable in the field of entrepreneurship, the first article contains a theoretical examination of its appropriateness and usability. Furthermore, a literature review and expert interviews provide a first insight into entrepreneurial challenges and their underlying processes. The second article includes an in-depth examination of the problems and tensions emerging during the venture-creation process. Therefore, three different expertise groups and their deviating perceptions of entrepreneurial activity are considered. The third study connects entrepreneurial challenges and personal dispositions in order to approach a valid modeling of entrepreneurial competence and therefore to enable an improvement of curricula, instructional designs and assessment techniques in entrepreneurship education.
