This document discusses the relationship between emotional intelligence and entrepreneurial orientation, specifically for women entrepreneurs. It begins with an abstract and introduction discussing how emotional intelligence may influence entrepreneurial potential and success. It then provides background on theories of entrepreneurship, characteristics of women entrepreneurs, and definitions of key concepts like entrepreneurial orientation. The document establishes the purpose of studying the relationship between emotional intelligence and entrepreneurial orientation for women entrepreneurs. It presents a theoretical framework discussing models of examining entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship. Finally, it discusses literature linking the entrepreneur's personality, including emotional intelligence, to entrepreneurial outcomes and orientation. The overall purpose is to investigate how emotional intelligence may stimulate the growth and success of women entrepreneurs.
The personality perspective views entrepreneurs as having inherent personality traits. However, research into specific traits like achievement motivation, risk-taking, and locus of control has produced inconclusive and contradictory findings. While some studies have identified common traits in entrepreneurs, the diversity of samples and definitions has made generalizing difficult. A more useful view is that entrepreneurial traits can develop through experience rather than being fixed, and that individuals exist on a spectrum of entrepreneurial behavior.
Mkt#210 lecture 3 entrepreneurial motivation & mobilityKawser Ahmad Sohan
This document discusses theories of motivation and factors influencing entrepreneurship. It describes Maslow's hierarchy of needs and McClelland's theory of three needs - need for affiliation, power, and achievement. The need for achievement is found to dominate in entrepreneurs. Factors influencing entrepreneurial motivation include internal drives and external supports. The document also examines factors influencing occupational and location mobility of entrepreneurs such as education, experience, facilities, and political conditions.
This document discusses the relationship between motivation and performance in organizational contexts. It argues that motivation can determine performance, as motivated employees tend to perform better, but that performance can also determine motivation. High individual, group, or organizational performance can generate motivation for future high performance. The relationship between motivation and performance is bidirectional, with each one influencing the other. Strategically managing this relationship can help organizations better align employee efforts with strategic goals to increase involvement, engagement, and results.
1) The document discusses several theories of motivation in the workplace, including Maslow's hierarchy of needs, Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory, McGregor's Theory X and Y, and Vroom's expectancy theory.
2) It examines the role of both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and the factors that influence employees' motivation levels such as job design, management practices, and performance feedback.
3) The authors argue that managers should focus on developing work motivation among employees in order to improve productivity and organizational performance.
This document summarizes a study that examines intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in for-profit and non-profit organizations. The study hypothesized that employees in non-profits would be more intrinsically motivated, while employees in for-profits would be more extrinsically motivated. It also hypothesized that intrinsically motivated non-profit employees would display more work effort and satisfaction. The study used surveys to measure motivation, effort, and satisfaction in 201 employees from for-profits and non-profits. The surveys assessed intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, job satisfaction, performance, and workload based on self-determination theory. The results aimed to provide insights into how motivation, satisfaction and effort may differ between the two organizational contexts.
This document discusses various theories of motivation. It begins by defining motivation and exploring its key components - needs, drives, and incentives. It then examines Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory and how it relates to motivational factors in an organizational context. Additional motivation theories covered include ERG theory, McGregor's Theory X and Y, and Herzberg's two-factor theory. The document emphasizes that motivation is a complex psychological process and different theories make different assumptions about what motivates human behavior.
3 Amini-Hajibashi, Melanie Employee Motivation and Self Determination TheoryMelanie Amini-Hajibashi
This document discusses employee motivation through the lens of self-determination theory. It begins by explaining the importance of motivation for both employees and businesses, as unmotivated employees can lead to lower performance and success. The paper then introduces self-determination theory and its three psychological needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness that are required for intrinsic motivation. Relationships and bonding are identified as particularly important for motivation. The document discusses different types of motivation, including intrinsic motivation which comes from internal drives, and extrinsic motivation which involves external rewards and comes in stages from external regulation to more internalized forms. Overall, the paper examines how self-determination theory can be applied to understand employee motivation in the workplace.
Most entrepreneurs often start a new enterprise ignorant of many key dimensions of running their enterprises and must obtain the necessary information if they are to survive. This study searches to generalize entrepreneurial success with the purpose of providing insights to entrepreneurial venture management. The conclusion expresses that entrepreneurial success depends on growing industries, financial capital, market attractiveness, environmental favorableness, entrepreneur's personality traits, and social networks.

Secondary motives that become important in complex societies are also examined.
This study examines the motivations of baby boomer entrepreneurs (born 1946-1964) for starting businesses in the hospitality industry. It analyzes whether they were more "pushed" by lack of alternatives or "pulled" by opportunities. Interviews with 28 baby boomer entrepreneurs in hospitality were conducted to understand their motivational drivers. The findings validated initial assumptions that motivations change over time from profit-oriented to lifestyle-oriented as financial security is achieved. Reasons for this include personal goals, independence, and engagement with customers in the hospitality industry.
Economic and Psychological theories of Entrepreneurial motivationMohit Garg
This document discusses economic and psychological theories of entrepreneurial motivation. It outlines several theories including economic theories, Joseph Schumpeter's innovation theory, and psychological theories. The economic theories state that entrepreneurship is motivated by favorable economic conditions and incentives like taxation policy. Schumpeter's innovation theory posits that entrepreneurship involves introducing new products, markets, production methods, and organizations. Psychological theories argue that entrepreneurship stems from individuals possessing traits like a need for achievement, vision, risk-taking, and self-reliance formed through upbringing.
The document discusses various theories of entrepreneurship from sociological, economic, cultural, and psychological perspectives. It summarizes Max Weber's theory of religious beliefs which argues that entrepreneurial spirit is influenced by religious beliefs. It also outlines Everett Hagen's social change theory that entrepreneurial creativity drives social transformation. The document examines Joseph Schumpeter's theory of innovation which defines entrepreneurship as introducing new combinations. It discusses Peter Drucker's view of the entrepreneur as someone who responds to change by exploiting opportunities through innovation and recognizing resources.
High performance and productivity seemed to be the buzzwords in the private sector till now. In the
backdrop of various government schemes and poorly performing public sector organizations, this article takes a
peek into the concept of motivation in public sector and the factors which generally affects motivation at
workplace.
This document outlines several theories of entrepreneurship, including:
- Risk bearing theory of Knight which sees entrepreneurs earning profits by undertaking risk and uncertainty.
- Innovation theory of Schumpeter which views entrepreneurs as innovators who introduce new products, processes etc.
- Leibenstein's X-efficiency theory which examines the role of entrepreneurs in improving efficiency.
- McClelland's achievement motivation theory which proposes that individuals with a strong need for achievement are more likely to become entrepreneurs.
- Cultural values theory of Cochran which argues that entrepreneurial performance is influenced by societal attitudes and expectations.
The document discusses theories of motivation and their application in international human resource management. It examines Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, Herzberg's two-factor theory, and achievement motivation theory.

It also presents a case study of how the North Eastern Electric Power Corporation Ltd. implemented various initiatives like corporate restructuring and training to motivate its workforce and unlock their creativity after facing challenges with workforce stagnation and low morale.
Emergent leaders, the ones that get noticed, promoted and pampered in their organizations, typically exhibit strong self-confidence, decisiveness, and visionary thinking – which are not bad things. These characteristics are related to charisma. Too much might be as unacceptable as too little, though. Charisma has a dark side; it is linked to narcissism, and narcissism comes with disastrous side effects.
Multiple studies have revealed that it is humility in leadership that ensures results, productivity and effectiveness of an organization. Humility is a personality trait that is not glamorous at all, and often overlooked. Yet, it seems what many companies are missing in their endeavors to face and cope with the exigencies the 4th industrial revolution is presenting. According to their conversation on leadership 4.0 at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting of the new champions, working with millennials, leaders say humility works better than bossing around (Vanham, 2019). Today, there are fewer possibilities for dysfunctional narcissistic leaders to mask or coat their misconduct. It is a huge opportunity for HR departments to make identifying humble leaders and developing humility in charismatic leaders a priority.
This document discusses different theories of entrepreneurship, including sociological, economical, cultural, and psychological theories. It notes that entrepreneurship and economic development are interdependent, and that entrepreneurial activities are motivated by favorable economic conditions and incentives like taxation policy, sources of financing, and infrastructure availability. Additionally, entrepreneurship thrives when a society has individuals with psychological traits like a need for achievement and a vision. Finally, the document states that entrepreneurship stems from cultural values and systems, and that cultural minorities can act as "spark-plugs" for entrepreneurial and economic development.
Managers play a key role in organizational success and their employees' success. To be effective, managers must understand emotional intelligence, have certain skills like technical knowledge, interpersonal skills, and conceptual skills, and understand their roles. The document discusses three characteristics and three skills of effective managers, as well as ten primary managerial roles grouped into interpersonal, informational, and decisional categories. Good communication skills are important for managers to successfully fulfill their roles.
Debate 7 Money is the dominant motivator (1)sehaj kaur
The document argues that money is the dominant motivator for employees. It makes four main points:
1. Money motivates people to work harder, as extra money provides incentive to increase productivity.
2. Monetary incentives encourage competition between employees to raise standards and performance.
3. Money provides a simple way for companies to reward workers for their efforts and achievements.
4. Money can motivate all types of workers, from entry-level positions to executives, making it universally appealing.
The document uses theories like Maslow's hierarchy of needs and scientific management to support the position that money fulfills basic human needs and drives behavior. It concludes that rewarding employees financially leads to increased effort, competition

This document provides an overview and excerpt from a forthcoming book titled "Fearless HR - Driving Business Results". The book discusses how HR has historically been perceived as adding little value due to its administrative past and role as an overhead cost center. However, the excerpt argues that HR can act as a "force multiplier" by shaping the workplace environment and workforce to strengthen business outcomes. It presents research showing correlations between effective talent practices and higher financial performance and shareholder returns. Specifically, companies with a "Talent Mindset" that views employees as an asset rather than just a cost tend to outperform peers. The excerpt aims to counter the perception that HR does not add value by highlighting evidence that effective talent practices are linked to improved
Women’s innovative strengths for DevelopmentLuisa Nenci
The document discusses women's thinking and innovative strengths. It argues that women think more contextually, holistically and flexibly than men, integrating more details into more complex patterns ("web thinking"). This web thinking is essential for innovation. The document also discusses how women's social skills like collaboration, empathy and sharing power further contribute to innovation. It notes that while skills are not exclusive to gender, women regularly display these innovative strengths. Having balanced gender teams optimizes innovation potential. The document advocates for policies supporting both gender diversity in teams and work-life balance to further promote innovation.

This document discusses photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and DNA. It explains that photosynthesis converts sunlight into chemical energy by plants, while cellular respiration in mitochondria converts the energy stored in glucose to ATP through aerobic or anaerobic processes. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces more ATP than anaerobic respiration. The document also describes that DNA is made of nucleotides with bases A, T, C, and G, has a double helix shape, and replicates itself by unwinding and using each strand as a template to produce two new DNA molecules before cell division.
1. The document summarizes key concepts from biology including asexual vs sexual reproduction, mitosis vs meiosis, DNA structure and replication, protein synthesis, genetics, evolution, and classification.
2. It compares asexual reproduction which produces identical clones using mitosis to sexual reproduction which adds genetic variation using meiosis and fertilization of egg and sperm.
3. DNA is made of nucleotides with a sugar, phosphate, and one of four bases (A, T, C, G) that form the double helix shape. DNA replication copies DNA through unwinding and adding new nucleotides based on base pairing rules.
4. Protein synthesis involves transcription of DNA to mRNA in the nucleus, then translation of mRNA to proteins

The document outlines the triangular trade route that connected Europe, Africa, and the Americas from the 1500s onwards. It describes how goods were traded for slaves, who were then transported on the brutal Middle Passage to the Americas, where goods like sugar and cotton were traded back to Europe. The slave trade devastated African societies and economies while greatly benefiting industries and port cities in colonial powers like England. Millions of Africans lost their lives in the process.
Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is the capacity to understand yourself and others’ emotions, and to motivate and develop yourself and others to result in improved work performance and enhanced organizational effectiveness. Emotional Intelligence is measurable, and most importantly can be developed! Cognitive Intelligence (IQ) helps to determine if an individual is trainable where Emotional Intelligence (EQ) helps to determine if an individual is capable. EQ addresses the emotional, personal, social, and survival skills associated with street smarts
Altered States of Consciousness discusses various drugs and their effects. Drugs can be agonists that combine with receptors to produce physiological responses, or antagonists that counteract other drugs' effects. Reuptake inhibitors block the release of serotonin. If a drug is used often, tolerance develops requiring more of the drug to feel the same effect. Stopping a drug can cause withdrawal symptoms. Depressants like alcohol impair skills while stimulants like caffeine and nicotine provide energy. Hallucinogens like LSD and marijuana can cause hallucinations. Cocaine prevents neurotransmitter reuptake, producing a brief euphoric rush followed by a crash.
This document discusses emotional intelligence and how it can be applied in a corporate setting. It defines emotional intelligence as the ability to understand one's own and other people's feelings and to manage emotions appropriately.

It argues that emotional intelligence is important both for individual contributors and people management in a corporate context.
The document describes Dracunculus medinensis, commonly known as the Guinea worm. It provides details on the morphology of the female and male worms, noting females are elongated and cylindrical with a recurved caudal end, while males are smaller and coiled posteriorly. The life cycle involves a cyclops intermediate host, with larvae released from females when submerged in water and infecting humans who ingest water contaminated with the larvae. Infection causes the painful disease dracunculiasis, presenting as a cutaneous blister that emerges from the skin, often followed by secondary bacterial infections like tetanus.
The document provides an overview of Quality Function Deployment (QFD), a structured methodology for incorporating customer needs into product design and development. It discusses the key aspects of QFD, including identifying customer requirements, design attributes, and their relationships.

2) It introduces different management models and theories that can influence these implicit constituents in order to improve employee performance and public management effectiveness.
3) Specifically, it discusses how personality, attitudes, and motivations can be managed through approaches like McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y, which emphasize cooperation over strict control, in order to maximize employee effectiveness.
This document provides an overview of organizational behavior concepts including:
1. Definitions of organizational behavior focusing on understanding individual and group behavior to improve organizational effectiveness.
2. Frederick Taylor's scientific management approach which studied work efficiency and developed techniques like standardized jobs and piece-rate pay.
3. The contingency approach which recognizes there is no universal solution and behaviors depend on situational factors like culture and technology.
4. Key aspects of communication including encoding messages, decoding, potential for distortion, and the importance of feedback.
Employees who are highly engaged are the best asset for an organization. Engaged employees are fully committed to their work, interested, and able to focus their attention and inspiration on doing their best. In today's competitive global business environment, companies must compete internationally and focus on creativity and innovation to be leaders in their industries. Both human and non-human assets are crucial for companies to continue operating successfully in the long run, but human capital is becoming more important because employees generate ideas and drive companies forward through their work. There are different types of employee engagement, including attitudinal, behavioral, and trait-based engagement, and engagement is determined by both individual employee characteristics and the organizational environment.
There is increasing acceptability of emotional intelligence as a major factor in personality assessment and effective human resource management. Emotional intelligence as the ability to build capacity, empathize, co-operate, motivate and develop others cannot be divorced from both effective performance and human resource management systems. The human person is crucial in defining organizational leadership and fortunes in terms of challenges and opportunities and walking across both multinational and bilateral relationships. The growing complexity of the business world requires a great deal of self-confidence, integrity, communication, conflict, and diversity management to keep the global enterprise within the paths of productivity and sustainability. Using the exploratory research design and 255 participants the result of this original study indicates a strong positive correlation between emotional intelligence and effective human resource management. The paper offers suggestions on further studies between emotional intelligence and human capital development and recommends conflict management as an integral part of effective human resource management.
Leadership requires influencing others to achieve common goals. Emotional intelligence plays a key role in effective leadership through competencies like self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy, and relationship management. Leaders with strong emotional intelligence skills are better able to understand their own emotions and the emotions of others, build trust and rapport, motivate teams, and create a cooperative work environment where people are more supportive of the leader and organization's goals. While intelligence is important, emotional intelligence may be a stronger predictor of leadership success and performance outcomes as it influences how well people can apply their other skills.
A Systematic Literature Review Of Emotional Intelligence And Entrepreneurial ...Tony Lisko
This document summarizes a literature review on the relationship between emotional intelligence and entrepreneurial abilities. It finds that emotional intelligence has a strong positive correlation with entrepreneurial success based on existing research. The document defines emotional intelligence and outlines three main frameworks for understanding it. It also defines entrepreneurship and notes that over 50% of new businesses fail within 5 years. The literature review finds that entrepreneurs who display passion for their ventures and can manage emotions in themselves and others have a greater chance of success.

ANALYSIS OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE IMPACT ON LEADERSHIP SUCCESSMonica Waters
This document analyzes the impact of emotional intelligence on leadership success. It discusses how emotional intelligence allows leaders to effectively manage employees and create a productive work environment. The document contains 3 key points:
1) Emotional intelligence gives leaders important interpersonal skills to interpret emotions and use them to achieve management success and build strong interpersonal relationships. This helps motivate employees and improve performance.
2) Leaders with high emotional intelligence can transfer these competencies to employees to increase job satisfaction, commitment, and innovation. They encourage an environment of open communication and feedback.
3) Developing emotional dynamics in an organization, such as empathy and shared vision, leads to organizational altruism where employees feel personally invested. This team approach
Emotional intelligence has become a familiar issue between academicians, counsellors and business leaders due to a considerable role in the workplace. Organizations may be able to increase productivity and improve employee well-being through assessment and training of EI. Successes and failures at work generate emotions that may feedback to influence job performance, health, and other work behaviours. Understanding the interplay between work and emotion requires the identification of emotional competencies. Systematic research matching facets of EI to specific job competencies needed in order to substantiate the relevance of EI to the workplace. Anupama | Dr. Ajay K.

An entrepreneur is defined as someone who establishes a new business venture and takes on the risks associated with it in order to make a profit. There are several theories that attempt to explain entrepreneurship, including sociological, economic, cultural, psychological, and motivation theories. Sociological theory examines how social and cultural values influence entrepreneurship. Economic theory views entrepreneurs as agents who act to coordinate scarce resources. Cultural theory studies entrepreneurs as sources of innovation and new ideas. Psychological and motivation theories explore personality traits and internal drives like achievement motivation that compel individuals towards entrepreneurial pursuits.

Managing Conflict: Audio Interviews
Healthy Conflict in Public Administration
Interviewer: Workplace conflict is a natural and healthy aspect of organizational success, but in some
instances, it can also be detrimental. From your perspective, should the public administrator promote a
culture where health conflict is expressed and utilized toward achieving organizational goals, and if so,
how should he or she do achieve this organizational culture?
Representative Keith Ellison
United States Congressman, 5th District of Minnesota
Washington, D.C.
Well, the public administrator has to understand that conflict is like gravity, it is there, it will be there,
there is no such thing as conflict-free environment, nor should there be.
The sales force wants to sell as many products as they can. The accounting group wants to make sure
that the organization is safe and sound and solvent. Sometimes these two goals are at cross purposes,
and they should be—what the administrator and the leader needs to do is to create an environment
where mistakes are OK, where conflict is OK, where people can disagree, where somebody can say that I
think that so-and-so is wrong and that so-and-so will have enough trust to know that it is, one, not
personal. Two, not designed to thwart their progress in the organization. Three, that it is sincerely
meant.
I mean, the leader needs to set that tone, and sometimes that means the leader needs to let people
critique them, and that sends a message that, critique and difference of opinion is OK here.
Now, of course at some point we need to get it together and make a decision, but you have got to make
a deliberate and conscious effort to make sure that you have an environment in which people can give
criticism and people can take it.
This is learned behavior. This does not just spring up overnight, this is learned behavior, and you have to
practice it and you have to deliberately implement a process for conflict resolution, honesty, and trust. In
that way you are always going to be able to anticipate problems as they arise. Conflict should be looked
at as early warning system.
State Senator Katie Sieben
Minnesota State Senator, District 57
St. Paul, MN
There is certainly no lack of conflict in the Minnesota Senate and it is not, as most people would think, it
is not along partisan lines always or has been usually. So I do not have any real good advice to how to
promote it because it just comes so naturally to us in the legislative setting.
Ms. Deborah Chase
City Council Member 1998 - 2003, Mayor 2002 - 2003
City of Kennmore
Conflict ignored always grows, so you absolutely have to address that. And providing a healthy
environment where it is okay to disagree or at least discuss the disagreement, so that everyone
understands where each other is coming from is critically important in order .

Predicting Corporate Failure - An Application of Discriminate Analysisscmsnoida5
Corporate failure is a serious problem being
confronted by the corporate world. This issue
has been a subject of intensive research and
discussion by economists, bankers, creditors,
equity shareholders, accountants, marketing
and management experts. The present study
aims at developing a model for prediction
of corporate failure on the basis of financial
ratios. The study is based on the data of
selected firms from chemical industry (with
equal number of failed and non failed firms).
The discriminant analysis has been used to
discriminate between failed and non failed
firms. It is concluded that some of the
financial ratios can significantly differentiate
between failed and non failed firms. The
finding will be useful for the banks and other
financial institutions in designing a suitable
credit appraisal and monitoring system for their
loans. This model could guide the policy makers
to prepare an early warning system to avoid
bankruptcy.

Innovation Diffusion Theory - Review & Scope in the Study of Adoption of Smar...scmsnoida5
When mobile phones were introduced in the
world markets, little did one expect that these
small handheld devices would transform the
world as we knew it. This small innovation
transformed the lives of millions of people. A
simple device which was invented basically as a
vocal-communication tool got transformed into a
complex gadget that facilitates almost all forms of
communication now-a-days be it vocal, written or
multimedia. Mobile phones have metamorphosed
into smartphones which are far advanced than
their predecessors. These smartphones are new
innovations in themselves as with each passing
day they come up with added features and uses
never thought of before. With markets being
flooded by these smartphones it will be occupying
to study their diffusion across global markets.
Indian markets in particular have been swamped
by millions of smartphones each month in the last
two years or so. This study is aimed to use the
framework of Innovation Diffusion theory to suggest a model for the analysis of adoption and
ultimately the diffusion of smartphones in India.
The innovation diffusion theory in itself has
developed immensely from the time of its origin
(1962) till the present day. This paper will try
to discuss some of the key elements of Innovation
Diffusion theory.
Strategic HR Imperatives for Indian Public Sector Banksscmsnoida5
India being one of the largest economies in the
world is gradually emerging as major economic
force to reckon with. Major growth has been
realized due to proactive as well as reactive
changes in the Indian business environment and
strategic postures adopted by companies. Banking
sector is the mirror of any economy through which
financial health of that country can be predicted,
India is not an exception. In India public sector
banks accounted for more 70 percent assets of
total banking industry. Their performance and
outcomes have major impact on growth of country
India. Due to the globalisation and deregulatory
forces, the competitive structure of banking
industry has gone for tremendous changes. These
changes imposing various challenges in front of
public sector bank to overcome with and align
their key areas with their strategic requirement,
rather than being stick on traditional and
conventional approach of banking. Therefore,
it becomes imperative for Public Sector Banks (PSB) to identify various existing mismatches
between their strategies, environmental moves
and ultimate goals and objectives to deliver best
value to their customer and adduce their position
in hyper competitive market.

Taming Inequalities - Neoliberalism and Corporate Social Responsibility in In...scmsnoida5
These days we only find that altruism is being
practiced and preached either during natural
calamities or man made disasters. Often, seeds of
social Responsibility are sowed in school children
either through summer holiday projects or home
works’. Simultaneously a very dominating role of
Corporates and their anew social responsibility
initiatives becomes a vantage point to explore.
This paper will examine the concept keeping in
mind the dynamics of Neo Liberal age and its
synergy with poverty reduction, development and
welfare. For this, we will be analyzing a short case

Attitudinal Study of Buyers to Analyse the Reasons for Transition from Delhi ...scmsnoida5
Delhi is now more or less saturated and the high
demand for residential properties has increased
rates beyond the reach of middle class. As a result,
the suburban towns within the NCR; Gurgaon,
Noida, Faridabad and Ghaziabad have become
destinations for new residential projects that offer
affordable quality housing to the middle class
as well as luxury housing for high end users. As
these suburbs are now increasingly generating
employment, they will decide the future growth
pattern of the NCR. The business and trader
class still largely dominate old residential areas
in west and northwest Delhi. Similarly the large
multi-storey societies in East Delhi – in Mayur
Vihar and Patparganj – have found preference
with the service class. Suburban areas like Noida
and Gurgaon have developed as alternative
housing solutions and are inhabited mostly
by professional and service class people, as well
as an increasing upper middle class segment.
Earlier people used to search for a new home within Delhi but now things have changed
tremendously. People looking for a new home
have started focusing on the upcoming NCR area
comprising Gurgaon, Noida, Greater Noida,
Faridabad and Ghaziabad. There are numerous
factors responsible for this change, which have
been identified and analyzed during the research.
Gurgaon offers a good quality of living with
many high-end residential projects by private
developers. Since it will be maturing as an
independent city, occupancies will improve but in
the present context, it is an oversupply situation.
Noida has experienced rising prices in its existing
commercial, retail and residential real estate. The
new developing residential sectors are along the
Greater Noida expressway. Authors have tried
to study and analyze how buyers have opted for
places like Gurgaon & Noida.

Introduction
During rapid changes through
communication technologies in
knowledge based economy, the knowledge
and thought strength is rapidly replacing the
arm strength”. Human thought and emotions
has been valued more than before. It is
researched that, positive emotions influence
an entrepreneur’s ability to turn their past
experiences into present solutions through
heuristic processing and deal effectively
with the persistent stress. According to
Boren (2010), emotional intelligence has
implications for entrepreneurial situations
and social interactions such as negotiation,
obtainingandorganizingresources,identifying
and exploiting opportunities, managing
stress, obtaining and maintaining customers,
and providing leadership. In their study on
emotional intelligence of entrepreneurs, Rhee
and White found that entrepreneurs with
high Emotional Intelligence demonstrated
high level of self-confidence, trustworthiness,
achievement orientation, service orientation,
change catalyst, teamwork and collaboration.
The entrepreneurship, for men and women
both, experience is said to be an extreme
experience with full of uncertainty,
ambiguity and stress, where only those
with strong entrepreneurial characteristics
can survive and sustained. Recent times
have seen researchers focusing on personal
qualities of the entrepreneur that develops
outstanding businesses. Entrepreneurs’
emotional intelligence is positively related
to entrepreneurs’ intellectual stimulation
and individualized consideration and
entrepreneurs’ charismatic inspirational
behaviours. The findings extend the
literature by suggesting that entrepreneurs’
Emotional intelligence is a “latent” emotional
capability that impacts their transformational
leadership orientation. It is also suggested
that by employing charismatic-inspirational
behaviours, entrepreneurs demonstrate
their ability to enlist and manage followers’
emotions and hence influence growth.
There is increasing growth in the new
ventures that are created globally. There
are over 850,000 new businesses launched
in the United States every year, and new
entrepreneurs get credit for launching 84%
of those businesses (Price, 2006; Zimmerer,
Scarborough, & Wilson, 2007). According
to World bank report in 2012, an estimated
126 million women were starting or running
new businesses in 67 economies around the
world. In addition, an estimated 98 million
were running established businesses. The
important aspect is that the entire new
venture created does not succeed and fail in
their initial stage of growth. It is interesting to
see whether set of personality characteristics
of an entrepreneur has direct connection with
the success or failure of the venture?
The challenging world of entrepreneurship
for women demand a strong emotion for
entrepreneurs to embrace the challenges they
are facing every day from the stakeholders
be their employees, customers, suppliers,
government, agencies and the list goes on.
Studies have shown that women entrepreneurs
with higher emotional intelligence tend to
performance better.
Purpose of Study
The primary purpose of this study is to analyse
3. 40 Journal of General Management Research
relationship between EI and EO and also to
understand whether EI is the key component
that differentiates and stimulate the growth of
successful women entrepreneur.
The research highlights the key difference
in men and women entrepreneurs and
their personality characteristics that forms
the basis of entrepreneurial orientation. A
detailed literature review is done to analyse
the variables involved in entrepreneur and
entrepreneurial process.
The psychology research concerning
Emotional Intelligence is still young.
Although it has garnered great interest
from scholars and practitioners because of
its potential to be used to influence desired
working outcomes and performance. This
leaves plenty of opportunity to contribute to
apply EI research within entrepreneurship,
and more specifically, to research concerning
the women entrepreneur.
Moreover, EO represents one of the few
research areas within entrepreneurship where
agreement has been reached among scholars,
and where a cumulative body of knowledge
has been developing (Rauch et al., 2004).
That scholars have continued to contribute to
EO suggests that research in the area offers
valuable insight about entrepreneurship.
By addressing this problem, there is the
potential to confirm connections within
literature, and to bridge together evidence
within psychology and entrepreneurship that
has been previously unconnected.
Theoretical Framework
Examining Entrepreneurs
The roots of entrepreneurship can be
traced back several centuries to 1734,
when economist Cantillon coined the term
‘entrepreneur’ to describe the risk-taking
activities of farmers within the economy (cited
in Schumpeter, 1934). While the farmers
paid both their landlords and farm assistants
‘certain’ incomes, they themselves accepted
‘uncertain’ in-comes for the future. Thus,
the farmers were taking risks to reap future
economic benefits, and so, they were acting
as ‘entrepreneurs’ (Schumpeter, 1934). The
theories most commonly applied in research
on entrepreneurship are McClelland’s (1961)
theory of the need to achieve, and Rotter’s
(1966) locus of control theory. McClelland’s
theory suggests that individuals with a
strong need to achieve often find their way
to entrepreneurship. Rotter’s theory suggests
that the locus of control of an individual
can be seen as either internal or external.
The internal control expectation is related
to learning and thus motivates and supports
active striving, while the external control
expectation impedes learning and encourages
passivity. An internal control expectation
is usually associated with entrepreneurial
characteristics (Littunen, 2000).
Schumpeter’s mentioned “The function of
the entrepreneur is to reform or revolutionise
the pattern of production by exploiting an
invention or, more generally, an untried
technological method of producing a new
commodity or producing an old one in
new way, opening a new source of supply
of materials or a new outlet for products, by
organizing a new industry.”, (Schumpeter
1952, p. 72).
Women Entrepreneurs
The pull/push model is also a common
way of explaining different motives behind
why women start a business (Brush, 1999;
4. 41The Influence of Emotional Intelligence on Entrepreneurial Orientation of Enterprises...
Buttner& Moore, 1997). Push factors refer
to necessities such as unemployment, glass
ceiling, redundancy, recession, financial
reasons (inadequate family income),
dissatisfaction with being employed, or
the need to accommodate work and home
roles simultaneously. Pull factors are
related toindependence and the need to
succeed better than others as entrepreneurs.
According to Rotter’s theory, the locus of
control of an individual manifests in the need
for achievement, financial reasons (desire
for profit-wealth), personal development,
self-fulfilment, social status and power
(Hansemark, 1998; Glancey et al., 1998).
However, the situation is rarely a clear-cut
selection of pull or push factors, and the
factors are often combined (Brush, 1999).
Despite the role of individual attributes
in exploiting entrepreneurial opportunity
for new business or business diversification
by women entrepreneurs; however, recent
studies have shown that business environment
factors such as economic, financial and
socio-cultural, plays a greater role in the
exploitation of entrepreneurial opportunities
by women entrepreneurs (Kuzilwa, 2005;
Shastri & Sinha, 2010; Vob & Muller,
2009). For example, Shastri & Sinha,
(2010) argued that though all conditions for
exploiting entrepreneurial opportunity such
as education, experience, and energy may
exist, but the environmental constraints such
as lack of credit, and societal discriminations
especially in developing countries, may
hinder the entrepreneur. The study is
hinged on the fact that there is scarcity of
research that reviews literatures on individual
attributes and business environment factors
on the entrepreneurial activity of women
entrepreneurs (e.gShane, 2003; Shastri &
Sinha, 2010).
Examining Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurshipcouldbedefinedasa dynamic
process of vision, change and creation.
Vision is to recognize the opportunities
where others see chaos, contradiction and
confusion. Change and creationinvolves the
application of energy and passion towards
creating and implementing new ideas and
creating solutions (Kuratko and Hodgetts,
2004). Entrepreneurship is a word with
multiple dimensions and isused in a variety
of contexts. From the given discussion,
it becomes clear that entrepreneurship is
a process and entrepreneur is the person
who establishes a new enterprise in
the process. Thus, entrepreneur plays a
central role to the formation and launch of a
new venture (Mohanty, 2007). The process of
entrepreneurship involves bothentrepreneur
(person)andtheenterprise(object).Thiscould
be presented as mentioned in the following
Figure 1.
Figure 1: Entrepreneurship Process
Entrepreneurship is the major source of
employment, economic growth, innovation,
promotion of products and service quality,
competition, and economical flexibility of
today’s society (Hisrich, Langan-Fox, &
Grant, 2007). It is a multi-dimensional
concept that occurs in different contexts
(economic, technological, managerial,
laboural) and in all types of organizations.
Chell (2007) defined entrepreneurship as
‘the process of recognising and pursuing
opportunities with regard to alienable and
inalienable resources currently controlled
with a view to value creation’ (p. 18).
Knight (1921) viewed entrepreneurship as an
5. 42 Journal of General Management Research
ability to successfully predict the future (cited
in Low & McMillan, 1988). Schumpeter
(1934, 1942) defined entrepreneurship as
carrying out new combinations (cited in
Low & McMillan, 1988), by introducing
new production methods, opening new
markets, acquiring new sources, or creating
new organizations (cited in Entrialgo et al.,
2000). Stevenson, Roberts and Grousbeck
(1985) suggested that it involves a drive by
the perception of opportunity. As a result,
the entrepreneur is viewed as the catalyst
for entrepreneurship – a term that has been
recently been equated with ‘the creation of
new enterprise’ (Low & McMillan, 1988).
Examining Entrepreneurial Orientation
The concept of Entrepreneurial Orientation
(EO) has emerged and flourished within the
field of entrepreneurship. Today, EO has
grown to be accepted by many scholars as a
standard gauge measuring the entrepreneurial
nature of a firm’s strategy-making processes
– thus providing a useful framework for
exploring an antecedent to ‘the creation of
new enterprise’ – or entrepreneurship itself.
EO dimensions represent a set of strategy-
making processes; including planning,
analysis, decision-making, culture, value
system, and mission (Hart, 1992; cited
in Sapienza et al., 2003). These processes
represent the mindset of firms engaged in
new entry (Sapienza et al., 2003), and serve to
enact organizational purpose, sustain vision,
create competitive advantage, and determine
how new entry is undertaken (Lumpkin
& Dess, 1996). While they are observed as
firm-level processes, EO dimensions can be
undertaken by individual key players within
a firm (Lumpkin &Dess, 1996).
Lumpkin and Dess (1996) expanded upon
the emergent dimensions of risk-taking,
proactiveness,andinnovation,toincludethose
of autonomy and competitive aggressiveness.
Collectively, the five dimensions comprise
the full spectrum of EO. While the factors
often work together to enhance a firm’s
entrepreneurial performance, it has been
found that firms demonstrating only a few
dimensions can still be successful (Dess &
Lumpkin, 2005). This is due to the differing
need of firms in undertaking entrepreneurial
strategy-making; which is dependent upon
the environment, structure and leader. As
such, varying levels of EO may be necessary
to perform (Lumpkin & Dess, 1996). The
link between EO and performance can, on an
abstract level, be interpreted as follows: EO is
a dynamic capability that can lead to valuable,
rare, inimitable and non-substitutable
resource combinations (Alvarez & Busenitz,
2000).
The Entrepreneur’s Personality and
Entrepreneurship
Several researchers (e.g. Mintzberg, 1973;
Miller, 1983; Drucker, 1985; Covin & Slevin,
1991; Zahra, 1993) have demonstrated
evidence that the firm’s entrepreneurial
outcomes is directly associated to ‘personality’
of the entrepreneur. While numerous insights
about this connection have been suggested by
scholars, there remains ample opportunity for
further contribution.
The entrepreneur’s personality is comprised
of his/her psychological characteristics. Upon
examining literature within psychology and
entrepreneurship, it was revealed that the
personality of an entrepreneur is situated at
the heart of decision-making, and therefore,
strategy-making which ultimately leads to
the fate of the venture. This ‘chain’, called
the entrepreneurial process, proceeds as
6. 43The Influence of Emotional Intelligence on Entrepreneurial Orientation of Enterprises...
follows; any characteristic that influences
the entrepreneur’s perception of his/her
surrounding environment can influence his/
her choice of action (Shaver & Scott, 1991).
This occurs by first influencing decision-
making, which informs strategy-making (Das,
2008), which, depending on its nature, can be
defined as entrepreneurial or otherwise. When
such strategy-making is entrepreneurial, this
can lead to actions facilitating ‘the creation of
new enterprise’ – or entrepreneurship.
Of all psychological characteristics that
can affect an individual’s decision-making,
the connection between an individual’s
cognitive (broadly: reasoning) and emotional
functioning isimpossible to ignore,
because decision-making is bound by their
interrelation (Gray et al., 2002; cited in Das,
2008). Therefore, any characteristic that can
to some degree capture this interrelation is
worth investigating.
Miller (1983) found that simple firm
entrepreneurial activity is highly dependent on
the personality, power and knowledge of the
owner-manager; finding that the personality
of the leader is ‘the most critical factor in
determining entrepreneurship’, (Miller,
1983, p. 782). Drucker (1985) suggested that
the entrepreneur’s personality is a key internal
factor that drives a firm to commit to the
systematic practice of innovation, by deciding
how to satisfy opportunity with innovation.
Covin & Slevin (1991) reaffirmed the
influence of an owner-manager’s ‘personality’
and emphasized its strong and direct impact
on the entrepreneurial potential, behavior,
and effectiveness of firms. Herron (1990)
showed that an entrepreneur’s skill and skill
propensity are associated with new venture
performance. Zahra (1993) suggested that
managers’ backgrounds, values and experi-
ences influence factors within a firm, and
thus hold a marked effect on the firm’s
entrepreneurial posture which comprises its
entrepreneurial strategy-making processes
(Lumpkin & Dess, 1996), leading to
entrepreneurship.
In recent years, researchers (e.g. Cross &
Travaglione, 2003; Zamptenakis et al.,
2009) have begun to apply EI to the field
of entrepreneurship, suggesting that EI
contributes positively toward an individual’s
entrepreneurial behaviour. Taken together,
these ideas demonstrate how, in theory,
an entrepreneur EI is likely to, via the
entrepreneurial process; affect the EO of the
company. Furthermore, considering that the
entrepreneur position power enables him/
her to guide the direction of a venture, the
entrepreneurs perception of his/her firm’s EO
is valuable.
Cognitive and Emotional Interrelation
Within psychological research, emotional
and cognitive processes have often been
studied together, because they are complexly
interactive (Gohm, 2004). According to
Das (2008) rationality needed for personal
and business decision-making is bounded
by emotions. Anatomically, cognition and
emotion are integrated in the prefrontal
cortex (PFC) within the frontal lobe of the
brain, which is responsible for the basic
component of decision-making, which is
working memory. Gray et al. (2002) showed
that during even a simple task in working
memory, the cognitive task and emotional
state of an individual contribute equally
together to the functions of the PFC (cited in
Das, 2008).
Brain imaging has shown that decision-
making often occurs when an individual is
prompted by states of physiological arousal
7. 44 Journal of General Management Research
(Damasio, 1999; cited in Das, 2008). Here,
decisions are aided by emotions in the form
of physical states that is drawn out during the
careful consideration of future consequences.
As a result, our decisions are not entirely a
result of rational analysis, and non-conscious
processes, such as bodily reactions, could
precede decision-making (Das, 2008).
Emotions within the Entrepreneurial
Process
Within the psychological field, emotions
have recently been examined within the
entrepreneurial context. Researchers have
begun to analyze the role of managers’
emotions in the management process (e.g.,
Fineman, 2003; Huy, 1999). Further,
within entrepreneurship literature, there
exists a large body of material that regards
entrepreneurialism as a deeply emotional
activity (e.g., Bower, 1993; Branson, 2000;
Roddick, 2000; cited in Goss, 2008); and a
few researchers have focused on emotion as
a component of enterprising behaviour (e.g.
Goss, 2005a, 2005b; Kets de Vries, 1977,
1985; cited in Goss, 2008).
Further, it was found that employees’
willingness to act entrepreneurially is affected
by a manager’s display of emotions concerning
an entrepreneurial project (Brundin et al.,
2008); pointing to the effect of emotion
on decision-making and strategy-making.
Specifically, a study by Cross &Travaglione
(2003) found that a set of entrepreneurs,
each deemed successful by nature of their
firm’s profit, demonstrated out-standing
performance in Emotional Intelligence
(EI) ability, especially in the appraisal
and expression of emotion, regulation
and utilization of emotion. Moreover,
Zampetenakis et al. (2009) suggested that
individuals with high self-perceived EI often
have increased affectivity, contributing to
proactive and creative dispositions, and
facilitating entrepreneurial behaviour. A
positive effect of EI on entrepreneurial
behaviour was later confirmed, implying
that the elicitation and understanding of
certain emotions enables employees with high
EIto take appropriate actions, influencing
entrepreneurial behaviour (Zampetenakis et
al., 2009).
Mind of Entrepreneur
Figure 2: Proposed Position of EI in the
Entrepreneurial Process
Emotional Intelligence
To understand the concept of EI, its
two component terms, ‘intelligence’ and
‘emotion’, should be discussed. Psychologists
have recognized a three-part division of the
mind, comprising cognition, affect, and
motivation. The cognitive sphere comprises
such functions as memory, reasoning,
judgement, and abstract thought – functions
that when used together comprise what is
referred to as ‘intelligence’. Emotions belong
to the affective sphere, which also includes
moods, evaluations, and ‘feeling’ states such as
fatigue or energy. EI refers to the connection
of these two spheres – emotion with
cognition,that enables heightened emotional
or mental abilities. (Salovey & Sluyter, 1997).
Overall, EI captures the very interrelation that
is central to the entrepreneurial process, and
therefore, it represents a characteristic worth
investigation.
8. 45The Influence of Emotional Intelligence on Entrepreneurial Orientation of Enterprises...
In the scientific psychological literature EI
was introduced by Salovey and Mayer, in
1990, and popularized by Goleman (1995),
with his best-seller ‘Emotional Intelligence’.
Salovey and Mayer (1990) define emotional
intelligence as set skills which are ‘accurate
appraisal and expression of emotion in
oneself and in others, the effective regulation
of emotion in self and others, and the use
of feelings to motivate, plan, and achieve
in one’s life’. In 1997 they refined this
definition by including four interrelated
dimensions: perception, appraisal, and
expression of emotions; emotion facilitation
of thinking; understanding and analyzing
emotional information, employing emotional
knowledge; and regulation of emotions
(Mayer & Salovey, 1997).
Emotional intelligence (EI) relate to the
ability to identify and express emotions,
emotional adjustment and using emotions
as self-motivation and a means to motivate
others. Emotional intelligence abilities are
particularly salient to entrepreneurs because
of their need to manage social interactions
with other individuals. Social interactions
include activities such as presenting to
investors, gaining and maintaining customers,
negotiating, as well as attracting, selecting, and
handling employees, suppliers, and partners.
EI is divided into four main areas: self-
awareness, self-regulation, motivation,
empathy and social skills (Figure 3). It
involves managing emotions so as to avoid
task interference, delaying gratification to
pursue goals, recovering from emotional
distress and being conscientious.
In relation to the importance of emotional
intelligence, Berco and Lewin estimated that
90 percent of our actions are emotional and
just 10 percent of our actions done according
to thought and reason.
Wong and Law has taken further action to
developed new four dimensions emotional
intelligence scale using Mayer and Salovey
model which composed of self-emotional
appraisal (SEA), others’ emotional appraisal
(OEA), regulation of emotion (ROE) and use
of others’ emotion (UOE) which was reduced
to 16 items. Table 1 shows the description of
each dimension:

Figure 3: Goleman Emotional Intelligence Pattern
9. 46 Journal of General Management Research
Analysing Emotional Intelligence in
Entrepreneurial Orientation Relationship
Zampetaskis et al. (2009) argue that EI affects
entrepreneurial behavior in two ways: the first
is through the self-evaluation of emotional
efficacy – employees with high self-perceived
EI mayexhibit high tolerance to stress and
environmental stressors; the second concerns
individuals with high EI, who tend to have
higher affectivity, informing proactive and
creative dispositions and sofacilitating
entrepreneurial behavior. Zampetaskis et
al. (2009) investigated the relationship
between entrepreneurial behavior and
perceived organizational support (POS) and
emotional intelligence (EI). Their findings
suggest thatboth variables correlate with
entrepreneurial behavior, understood as a
set of activities going from independent/
autonomous to integrative/cooperative
behavior that aims to get things done
withentrepreneurial ways and contribute
to a creation of value for the organization.
Specifically, they saw that there is a direct
effect of EI on entrepreneurial behavior,
which may imply that employees with
high EI are more aware of the factors that
contribute to their experience of positive and
negative emotions. Accordingly, the authors
suggest that entrepreneurial actions might be
filteredthrough employee perceptions of their
emotional abilities (Zampetaskis et al., 2009).
Empirical evidence supports the contention
that the ability to interact effectively with
others is vital to success and explainsthat
Why some entrepreneurial ventures more
successful than others are?
Entrepreneurial success has since been linked,
in part, to cognitive abilities and social skills
(e.g., Baron & Markman, 2000, 2003). Some
of those skills include accurately perceiving
others, making good first impressions,
and persuading or influencing others in
interpersonal interactions (e.g., Baron &
Markman, 2000; Duck, 1994). Emotional
intelligence (EI) encompasses many of these
social and cognitive skills, as it is defined as
the ability to identify, facilitate, understand
and regulate your own emotions as well as the
emotions of others (Mayer & Salovey, 1997).
Thus, while EI encompasses many of the skills
and abilities found to relate to entrepreneurial
success, Individuals in entrepreneurial
occupations face business situations that
necessitate unique skills and abilities in
social interactions (e.g., Baron & Markman,
2000; Chandler & Hanks, 1994; Begley &
Boyd, 1987). Emotional intelligence has also
been recognized as extremely important in
interpersonal tasks (e.g., O’Boyle, Humphrey,
Pollack, Hawver & Story, 2010)
Two studies clearly addressed the relationship
between EI and entrepreneurial performance.
In a study by Cross & Travaglione (2003),
five Austrian entrepreneurs were studied
via in-depth interviews. From the results
the authors suggest that entrepreneurs with
greater overall emotional intelligence make
for successful individuals in work contexts
as well as social environments. Furthermore,
the researchers (Cross & Travaglione,
2003) found support for their hypothesis
that entrepreneurs exhibited greater levels
of EI than the norm, and also showed that
entrepreneurs exhibited high levels of each of
the three sub-dimensions originally proposed
by Salovey& Mayer (1990). The Goleman
model was also integrated into the structured
interviews and the researchers found
support for extraordinary levels of emotional
intelligence as developed in mixed models of
EI (Cross & Travaglione, 2003).
Emotional intelligence is a dimension of social
10. 47The Influence of Emotional Intelligence on Entrepreneurial Orientation of Enterprises...
intelligence (e.g., Gardner, 1999; Mayer et
al., 2004) and pertains to the ability to be
socially adaptable in a wide range of social
situations and to behave appropriately in such
situations. Results of previous studies have
provided evidence that social adaptability has
a positive relationship with firm performance
(e.g., Baron &Markman, 2003). The ability
to adapt to rapidly changing situations
and demands may also be advantageous for
entrepreneurs. In new ventures it is quite
common for entrepreneurs to have to interact
with individuals from diverse backgrounds
and operate in a variety of social situations.
Also, social perception can predict positive
interviewer ratings (e.g., Kacmar, Carlson, &
Bratton,2003)andmorepositiveperformance
evaluations from supervisors (e.g., Harris
et al., 2007). Perceiving others accurately,
a component of emotional intelligence, is
directly related to entrepreneurial activities
as well; such activities include successful
negotiations, selecting superior partners, and
hiring top-quality employees (Baron & Tang,
2008).
Thus, in accordance with theory, and the
aforementioned studies on emotional
intelligence, there will be a positive
relationship between emotional intelligence
and entrepreneurial success.
Examining Women Entrepreneur and their
EI connect for Business Growth
The recent Global Entrepreneurship Monitor
(GEM) 2013, found 126 million women
starting or running businesses and 98 million
operating established (over three and a half
years) businesses from 67 countries globally.
Women enter entrepreneurship for many of
the same reasons as men, such as to support
themselves and their families, to enrich their
lives with careers as well as to attain financial
independence. Yet aside from different
participation rates, women show marked
differences from men in many characteristics,
as the most recent GEM women’s report
shows (Kelley et al., 2013).
A 2010 innovation survey in the United
States sponsored by UNCTAD focused on
gender differences and found that women
business owners had fewer failure experiences
than men, which may suggest that women
are more likely to take calculated risks and
develop contingency plans if events do not
transpire as anticipated (Coleman & Robb,
2012; Coleman & Robb 2014).
Research on female entrepreneurs is
increasing rapidly, but little academic
literature has focused gender differences in
entrepreneurs (Yordanova and Alexandrova-
Boshnakova, 2010). Johnson and Powell
(1994) emphasized on the significance
of differences between male and female
entrepreneurial behavior on the success of
businesses because of their entrepreneurial
orientation in decision contexts. Gender
differences in behavior might be caused
by gender differences in entrepreneurial
orientation preferences, but they might
also be caused by situational factors such as
options provided to females and the advice
they receive. Empirical research in business
and finance reveal that females and males
differ in their entrepreneurial orientation.
Numerous studies have approached gender
differences in the contexts of risk orientation.
Powell and Ansic (1997) stated that females
have lesser risk preferences than males.
The emotional dimension of human beings
has traditionally been linked to a greater extent
with the female gender, which experiences
positive and negative emotions more intensely
11. 48 Journal of General Management Research
than the male gender (Grossman & Wood,
1993). These data, in fact, have fed the
stereotype, still widely held, that the female
gender is more emotional (Grewal&Salovey,
2005).
Biological as well as social factors have been
invoked to explain this ‘feminist vision of
emotions’ (Nolen-Hoeksema & Jackson,
2001). The biological explanation proposes
that women’s biochemistry is better prepared
to consider one’s own emotions and those of
others as an important element in survival.
Both biological and social explanations have
received support from a diverse range of
empirical studies of emotion, which show
greater emotional abilities in women. These
studies conclude that women have greater
emotional knowledge, they express positive
and negative emotions more fluently and
more frequently, they have more interpersonal
competencies, and they are more socially adept
(Brody & Hall, 2000; Ciarrochi, Hynes, &
Crittenden, 2005; Hall, 1978; Hall & Mast,
2008). As a result, members of the scientific
community and the general population
believe, from a very early age, that women are
more emotional than men (Feldman-Barrett,
Lane, Sechrest, & Schwartz, 2000). Indeed,
most studies of EI that are based on ability
tests such as the MSCEIT (Mayer, Salovey,
& Caruso, 2002a) and that include gender
in their analysis have assumed women to be
superior in emotional abilities (e.g., Brackett
& Mayer, 2003; Ciarrochi et al., 2000;
Kafetsios, 2004; Mayer et al., 1999; Palmer
et al., 2005).
The women are able to use Emotional
Intelligence as a competitive advantage as
they categorically use each level of EI at work
as an distinctive advantage:
1. Emotional Awareness (the ability to be
mindful, aware of your emotional states,
to name your emotions and base your
emotional responses upon your personal
values.)
2. Emotional Management (the ability
to be flexible and adaptable to change,
in control of your self, motivated and
confident.)
3. Emotional Relating (the ability to deeply
connect with others, manage interpersonal
conflicts, be assertive in your relationships
and socially adept.)
4. Emotional Enlightenment (the ability
to process through your emotional
experiences, ‘feel to heal’, learn from
mistakes, have a high self esteem and a
positive mindset.)
Mandell and Pherwani (2003) conducted
a small study consisting of 13 male and
19 female managers in mid- to large-size
companies, with the goal of examining gender
differences in the relationship between EI and
transformational leadership. The researchers
found that females were significantly higher
in EI than males, but there were no gender
differences when comparing the relationship
between EI and transformational leadership.
Mayer and colleagues have also found
superiority of females over males with regard
to managing own and other’s emotions.
When the authors engaged in more detailed
analyses, they did find that
femalemanagers who rated themselves
highest on TL style also self-reported
that they wereboth more in touch with
their own emotional states and with the
emotions of others. The authors described
this result as, “the abilities encompassed by
EI are intrinsically related to the role of the
transformational leader” (Downey et al.,
2005, p. 259). The results indicated that
12. 49The Influence of Emotional Intelligence on Entrepreneurial Orientation of Enterprises...
female leaders were significantly higher on
the interpersonal dimension of the EQ-i but,
otherwise, there were no gender differences.
Women’s behavior in owning or managing
a business are reflective of entrepreneurial
behavior (motivation and willingness to
exploit opportunities) in that team-building
and participative management practices are
common and social support is demonstrated.
Since women have more adept interpersonal
skills, it’s not surprising that they strategically
use their social networks to build support for
their idea and spend more time than men in
doing so. Women use networking not only
as a critical tool, but also as a development
strategy for their business. Therefore,
emotional intelligence, social capital,
and entrepreneurial behaviour essentially
merge to provide an advantage for women
entrepreneurs. Women can leverage their
aptitude with emotional intelligence when it
comes to leading their own companies.
Conclusions
In the researches paper we have firstly
indicated that an entrepreneur is pivotal
to a firm’s entrepreneurship. Second, it is
suggested that the entrepreneurial personality
– in particular, psychological characteristics
– matter to a firm’s entrepreneurship. Third,
it has been suggested that the entrepreneurial
personality and the key traits should be
investigated to understand its involvement
in the entrepreneurial process. Fourth, the
entrepreneur’s cognition has been identified
as important within the process, fifth, when
it comes to decision-making, cognition does
not act alone – it is interrelated with emotion.
Sixth, when applied within entrepreneurship,
EI, which addresses this cognitive-emotional
interrelation, has begun to be associated
with entrepreneurial outcomes. Lastly we
have identified that Women has innate sense
of EI which shapes EO of firm leading to
highperformance.
The present research in the paper are similar to
the ones reported by Rhee and White (2007),
and also by Cross and Travaglione (2003),
about the association and link between
emotional intelligence, entrepreneurial
behaviour and entrepreneurship. They have
also reported a strong link between emotional
intelligence and successful firm performance.
Emotional intelligence facilitates individual
adaptation and change, and emotional
capability increases the likelihood for
organizations to realize radical change (Huy,
1999). The link between entrepreneurial
orientation and emotional intelligence could
be generalized across nations and cultures.
Since emotional intelligences significantly
influence entrepreneurial orientation, we
could assume that emotional intelligence
can strengthen entrepreneurial behaviour
or could help in developing and managing
entrepreneurship effectively. Practitioners
and researchers could utilize the concept
of emotional intelligence in training,
development and research to develop effective
entrepreneurial behaviour or orientation to
achieve successful business performance.
Contribution to Theory and Implications
for Further Research
This study contributes specifically to the field of
entrepreneurship. The primary purpose of this
study was to identify the relationship between
women entrepreneur EI and their influence on
EO of firm. Even though a variety of research
hasbeenconductedconcerningtherelationship
between emotions and entrepreneurship (e.g.
Entrialgo et al., 2000; Brundin et al., 2008), to
our knowledge no studies have been conducted
connecting these dimensions.

Within future research, it would also be
valuable to obtain evidence from within
industries that are highly competitive in
nature and operate in highly competitive
environments could prove important to
examine. Also as it is researched that EI
can be learned, it shall be interesting to
research whether learned EI performs on the
similar dimensions as that of innate Women
Emotional Intelligence.
