Item type:Publication, Identidad nacional y aprecio por prácticas sostenibles en emprendedores sociales y comerciales de Lima(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-07-04)This comparative-correlational study aims to analyze and compare the relationship between appreciation for sustainable practices (APS) and national identity in two groups of social (n=135) and commercial (n=198) entrepreneurs in Lima-Peru. The results show that social entrepreneurs have higher APS and perceive Peruvians as warmer, more competent, and more moral than commercial entrepreneurs. Self-stereotype of competence and identification with the country explain APS significantly only significant in commercial entre-preneurs. The study analyzes little-explored psychosocial variables for the entrepreneurial phenomenon, proposing strategies to improve sustainability activities in entrepreneurs who do not have a explicit social orientation. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Creating shared value and social innovation: Cases of success from South American entrepreneurial ventures(IGI Global, 2020-12-04)This multiple case study of nine entrepreneurial ventures with social emphasis operating in Colombia, Peru, and Chile identifies vital elements that make these firms impactful in three dimensions: economic, environmental, and social. The results found that the founder's proximity to the social/ecological problem is a trigger to start up a business. The "purpose" is a motivational factor to both start up a business and keep the business during hard times, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose is the fuel, but it does not guarantee the success of the company. The value proposition is the critical factor for success. These companies are continually re-inventing and changing their value proposition while keeping the purpose of the organization as a keystone. The authors shed light on a model for social entrepreneur-ship in South America. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Values and personality as predictors of the appreciation for sustainable practices in social and commercial entrepreneurs of Lima-Peru(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, 2021-05-01)This study sought to analyze the predictive capacity of values (Schwartz, 1992) and personality (Goldberg, 1990) regarding the appreciation of sustainable practices (APS). The APS is a dimension that indicates a person's attitude toward sustainability, measured with a scale developed specifically for this study and applied in the context of entrepreneurial activity. Likewise, the classification capacity of the APS regarding the identification of entrepreneur profiles by type of entrepreneurship (social versus commercial) was analyzed and then compared with the classification capacity of values and personality. To this end, an intentional non-probability sample of entrepreneurs in Metropolitan Lima, previously classified as social (n = 135) or commercial (n = 198), was used. A multiple linear regression shows that the APS is predicted by self-transcendence values and the personality traits of agreeableness and intellectual openness. A binary logistic regression analysis shows that the classificatory capacity of the APS reaches 68.8% in the correct identification of cases, according to the type of venture undertaken, versus 76% for values and personality as a whole. However, the classificatory capacity of the APS is superior to that of values and personality when the dimensions of these constructs are analyzed separately. The discussion covers the classificatory capacity of the APS for the detection of socially oriented entrepreneurs as a parsimonious criterion, alternative and complementary to values and personality profiles, along with the implications of this construct for the understanding of innovative and sustainable entrepreneurship models. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Strategies of Peruvian social entrepreneurs from a cognitive and environmental perspective(Universidad Icesi, 2024-01-01)This research aimed to identify the strategies that social entrepreneurs use to create and grow their businesses through the analysis of cognitive dimensions and environmental facilitators. Multiple case studies were conducted to explore representative social enterprises in Peru. The results showed that business desirability defines the management of the initial years of the business, driven by empathy and moral principles, while feasibility, guided by self-efficacy, enables more sustainable growth. Four strategies, 1) maintaining coherence, 2) balancing passion and reason, 3) self-learning, and 4) active collaboration, facilitate the growth of social enterprises. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Characteristics of the leaders of social and environmental enterprises in Latin America and the relationship with the success of their businesses(Emerald Publishing, 2024-07-30)This study aims to understand the leadership characteristics of founders of social and environmental enterprises in Latin America who have achieved business success with a focus on sustainability despite difficult social, economic, political and even health contexts in which they live. Design/methodology/approach: This nonexperimental research is a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study. Twenty-one in-depth interviews were conducted with social/environmental entrepreneurs of the Kunan Network (an organization that groups the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Peru). Findings: The study analyzes the leadership profile and characteristics of entrepreneurs who have created profitable businesses with a social/environmental focus that solve relevant social problems and contribute to improving people’s quality of life and caring for the environment. Research limitations/implications: Although only 21 business leaders with outstanding participation and positive social and environmental impact were included in this study, they were supported and recognized by the Kunan Network. Originality/value: The study contributed to the conceptualization and understanding of the profile of leaders of social and environmental enterprises, whose main challenges are to solve social or environmental problems of society and contribute to improving the quality of life of people and the environment. Knowing the profile of these entrepreneurs generates value to the knowledge of the subject and contributes to understand and propose strategies to improve the ecosystem of social-environmental entrepreneurship in emerging countries such as Peru. This will contribute to the creation of relationships and alliances with various social actors: public, private, third sector, academia, among others, for the management and promotion of sustainable business. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Reimagining the future through the co-creation of social entrepreneurship in higher education: A multivariate prediction model approach(Emerald Publishing, 2024-01-01)This remastered analysis focuses on the impact of entrepreneurial interventions in higher education institutions (HEI), particularly in social entrepreneurship. The study evaluated the effectiveness of such interventions through a pre-and post-test approach, examining various skill sets in students. The primary goal was to analyze the influence of entrepreneurial training programs on students' competencies in social entrepreneurship by analyzing changes in personal behavior, leadership, innovation, social value and management skills before and after the educational interventions. Design/methodology/approach: The study employed a quasi-experimental design, analyzing pre-and post-test results in three distinct social entrepreneurship training experiences. The sample consisted of 304 participants, providing a comprehensive view of the impact of these interventions. Findings: The main findings were: (1) Educational interventions in social entrepreneurship must emphasize strategies for self-awareness, emotional intelligence and personal development improvement. The analysis revealed significant improvements in these areas, indicating that targeted strategies in these domains are essential for enhancing the effectiveness of social entrepreneurship education. (2) The impact of educational interventions on these capabilities can be effectively evaluated using machine learning methods such as ordinary least squares (OLS) regression. This approach allows for the inclusion of variables such as gender, age or location, providing a comprehensive assessment of the interventions' impact. (3) The interventions were particularly effective in improving students' innovation and leadership competencies. The analysis demonstrated substantial enhancements in these areas, underscoring the success of the interventions in developing these critical skills. (4) The study highlighted the need for a more focused approach in future interventions, emphasizing the importance of management, social value and personal skills. Additionally, it pointed out the necessity of developing and utilizing appropriate tools to create and evaluate these interventions effectively. Practical implications: The study provides insights into improving educational interventions in social entrepreneurship to better develop essential skills in students. Originality/value: This research introduces a significant approach to educational interventions for educational communities and decision-makers by demonstrating the effectiveness of entrepreneurial training for competencies in innovation and leadership, which are crucial for societal and economic development. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, A Sport-Based Social Entrepreneurship: What Do We Need?(Inderscience Publishers, 2023-01-01)One of the types of entrepreneurships that has recently been considered by researchers is social entrepreneurship, which is aimed at solving social problems in society and carrying out social and humanitarian missions in business activities. Sport is among the most important areas of entrepreneurship. In this study, we are looking to identify the major factors contributing to social entrepreneurship in sport. More specifically, the systematic approach of Strauss and Corbin has been used to develop a model of social entrepreneurship in Iranian sport sector. In doing so, we have conducted 10 in-depth interviews with sport experts. Accordingly, three major factors have been identified: individual, contextual, and institutional factors. Individual factors have three sub-factors, namely social, economic, and political factors. Institutional factors have two sub-factors of governmental and cultural support, and finally, contextual factors have three sub-factors, including financial, human, and cultural capital.
