“…Massi et al (2013) entendem que o maior benefício do PEE é o desenvolvimento da personalidade profissional, como as habilidades de trabalhar em equipe, e Carvalho, Costa e Mares (2015) também ressaltam a criação e a capacidade de trabalhar em equipe como um fator positivo do PEE e sua influência no projeto de vida das pessoas, envolvendo dimensões pessoais e profissionais. Após exposição a um PEE, a capacidade criativa do indivíduo é estimulada (Pedrini, Langulla, & Molteni, 2017), o que está em concordância com Kovesi (2017) que apresenta a criatividade como importante para o desenvolvimento da EE. É percebido que um PEE contribui para a escolha do empreendedorismo como opção de carreira (Diaz-Garcia, Saez-Martinez, & Jimenez-Moreno, 2015).…”

A promoção da educação para o empreendedorismo proporciona ao indivíduo repensar-se e reposicionar-se profissionalmente. A literatura aponta uma lacuna em estudos que avaliem a contribuição dos cursos de empreendedorismo. Este artigo busca preencher esta lacuna analisando a contribuição de um curso, transcorrido cinco anos de conclusão. Um survey foi enviado aos participantes do Curso Sequencial de Complementação de Estudos em Empreendedorismo e Inovação da Universidade Federal Fluminense, obtendo-se 173 respostas válidas. Os egressos destacaram que o curso os despertou para a busca de novas ideias, melhorou habilidades de comunicação e a visão sobre o mercado de trabalho, entre outras.

“…In addition to the temporal perspective, many scholars have researched entrepreneurship cultivation from a spatial point of view, in which the United States (Worsham and Dees, 2012; Elert et al, 2015; Guo et al, 2016) and the United Kingdom (Matlay, 2009; Henry and Treanor, 2010; Dabic et al, 2016) are frequently discussed. In addition, other developed European countries, such as France (Klapper, 2004; Kövesi, 2017), Germany (Klandt, 2004), and Sweden (Dahlstedt and Fejes, 2017) have also been targeted by existing studies. However, a focus on developing countries, such as China, is relatively low in English-language literature, and if developing countries were discussed, it was mostly in consideration of university students only.…”

What Entrepreneurial Followers at the Start-Up Stage Need From Entrepreneurship Cultivation: Evidence From Western China

et al. 2019

Entrepreneurial followers are defined as the crucial members of a specific entrepreneurial team and do not include the leader or normal employees in the present paper. This population can be viewed as indispensable factors in the success of entrepreneurship, especially in the start-up stage. In addition, according to the following time, they can be divided into two groups, namely long-term entrepreneurial followers and short-term entrepreneurial followers. However, studies focusing on entrepreneurship cultivation for entrepreneurial followers are relatively few. The main purpose of this paper is to determine the needs of Chinese entrepreneurial followers in entrepreneurship cultivation from the early stage of entrepreneurship. In this paper, a sample of 200 long-term entrepreneurial followers from Tianfu New Area in China was investigated. To enable the researchers to explore the unique opinions of entrepreneurial followers, a mixed data collection approach that combined interviews and questionnaires was chosen in this study. The results revealed following findings: (a) high levels of social capital, good entrepreneurial opportunities and projects, and highly cooperative teams were viewed as the most important factors for entrepreneurship by entrepreneurial followers in China; (b) most entrepreneurial followers believed that the primary difficulty in the cultivation process was the inefficiency in talent training mechanism; and (c) nearly 40% of samples suggested that the cultivation and enhancement of local talents should be firstly carried out by the Chinese government, indicating a gap between the supporting force for local and returned talents in China. In addition, various types of incentive policies and good environments for talent growth were also considered as important suggestions by entrepreneurial followers. We found that unlike entrepreneurial leaders, entrepreneurial followers focus more on income expectation, and personal development rather than supporting the development of companies in China. These findings should be viewed as priorities when enhancing current entrepreneurship cultivation in China.

“…The lack of a deep understanding on the motivation fostered to technology entrepreneurs for the economic growth of their countries [6]. As instance, [7] indicates that entrepreneurship education was introduced in France 20 years ago in the Grandes Ecole's of Engineering, yet most students still prefer well paid, secure positions. 3.…”

In the past 20 years, companies have successfully grown from start-ups to transnational companies are requiring new hard and soft skills from their employees, as they are using new methodologies in order to develop better products and services. Meanwhile, engineering students usually struggle to find projects in which they can apply their knowledge, solve a real market need, and remain financially selfsustainable. Thus, engineering education requires to constantly adapt its curricula. The article presents a project based learning strategy to develop technologically based products, using engineering, design and business tools, using principles from Design Thinking (DT) and Lean Start-up (LS) as a liaison between those domains. The approach was tested during 2 capstone courses for mechatronic engineers at Tecnológico de Monterrey Campus Estado de México for 4 years, where the students were required to develop a prototype along with a comprehensive business plan. Through a comparison with external evaluations, we validate the learning experience of merging engineering and Product Design (PD) education with topics from other domains to help leverage the students' skillset for their future jobs.
