“…This view underlies an effectual logic rather than causal logic approach to business and life (Sarasvathy, Venkataraman, 2011;Silberzahn, 2014), the logic which also refers to the concepts of distributed cognition and of situated action (Gibson, 1979;Hutchins, 1991Hutchins, , 1996Suchman, 1987 cited in Schmitt andHusson, 2017), explored here at the organizational level. To characterize this view initiated by Sarasvathy, the disciple of Herbert Simon, the authors list the following five principles (Sarasvathy and Venkataraman, 2011):…”

The new digital environment and the COVID-19 crisis, having drastically increased the amount of teleworking and e-commerce, seem to have benefited GAFAM and digital platforms. Under the current conditions, SMEs and traditional businesses are forced to look for adaptive strategies. Some researchers (e.g. A. Carmeli and G.D. Markman) argue that they SMEs and traditional businesses need to build entrepreneurial and organizational resilience . And it is in this respect, in particular, that psychology can be usefully mobilized to analyze new forms of economic competition. On these grounds, the authors of the paper defend the idea that the SMEs and traditional businesses will be able to exist and assert themselves against their new competitors. In this new interconnected, turbulent and uncertain environment, this self-assertion passes through a strategic and organizational reconfiguration, but also and above all, through entrepreneurial action in its effectual logic which can lead to resilience and, moreover, to antifragility .

“…Eroğlu, Piçak (2011) argue that entrepreneurs in different countries usually have some universal features as well as specific ones that are based on their own culture. Schmitt, Husson (2017) define an entrepreneur as a person capable of managing a large database of information and making decisions. De Sordi et al (2020) present a longitudinal study, where entrepreneurs are characterized by development methods that involve little commercial and technological uncertainty, followed by some more complex and unclear initiatives but always safer innovation.…”

“…Ollerton (2020) adds and resonates that this is why numerous successful entrepreneurs continue to fall prey to egotism's adverse effects because, in general, the concept and its diverse effects remain understudied. Schmitt and Husson (2017) believe that since the process of entrepreneurship continues to be a strategic and complicated task, it calls for entrepreneurs to adapt and apply a transformed cognitive approach to lead and manage more effectively (Holiday, 2016;Ollerton, 2020). Mukherjee (2016) adds and states that psychologically, the effects of egotism and how it is managed remains one of an entrepreneur's greatest opponents on route to obtaining lasting success.…”

This study sets out to address the perceived pitfalls of egotism among female entrepreneurs in South Africa. This study further ascertains a unique strategy and group of accustomed performance factors that are believed to serve as a cognitive antidote for female entrepreneurs to consistently out-manoeuvre the dangers of egotism. This study adopted a qualitative approach in which 16 achieving female entrepreneurs were purposively selected. The primary data was collected through the application of professionally conducted semi-structured one-on-one interviews and Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) served as the primary method of data analysis. Findings from this study prove the significant impact the effects of egotism are believed to have on entrepreneurship and managerial performance as a whole. Aspects such as continuous self-study and the establishment of a disciplined mind both surfaced as invaluable assets.
