Entrepreneurial competences of founders of startups participating in a brazilian government program
Competências empreendedoras dos fundadores de startups participantes de um programa de fomento brasileiro
Resumo
Startups have emerged as significant sources of investment, driving innovation and economic growth. However, a challenge faced is the limited understanding of the required entrepreneurial competencies by founders. This study examined the entrepreneurial competencies of founders participating in a startup promotion program, based on the McClelland model. The results revealed well-developed competencies in areas such as opportunity-seeking, persistence, quality orientation, efficiency, and commitment. However, opportunities for improvement were identified in the competencies of calculated risk-taking and independence/self-confidence. Thus, targeted training and mentoring programs in these specific areas can enhance startup development and ensure better resource utilization.
