An exploration of neuroscience in the service of entrepreneurship and its rationalities.<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Is the entrepreneur (like any citizen or consumer) primarily driven by reason or emotion? Do the heart and emotions prevail? Or, on the contrary, are choices rationalized? The question that lies at the heart of every important decision (a career change, an expatriation, a commitment to love…) applies for the entrepreneur. One of the most famous and widely read psychoanalysts (Damasio, 2004) refuses to settle the debate, agreeing with Spinoza that he succeeded in bringing emotion and reason closer together. This analysis is reinforced by the work of Kahneman (2016), who describes a decision-making paradigm based on a binary system: System 1 is intuitive (fast\/emotional), while System 2 is based on intelligence and planning (slow\/reflective). Today, with the development of neuroscience research, we can ask ourselves whether we are succeeding in overcoming this dilemma and what it means for the entrepreneur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, research has begun to adopt a biological perspective to understanding entrepreneurship by examining genetic predispositions to entrepreneurial activity (Nicolaou and Shane, 2013). However, despite this growing interest, the use of neuroscience (a key dimension of the biological perspective) is still limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Themes and questions to be addressed <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The aim of this special issue of Entreprendre & Innover is to build a bridge between neuroscience and entrepreneurship, by encouraging a fresh look at entrepreneurial practices. Proposals may focus on the following questions (without being exhaustive):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– How do emotions or affect play a part in decision-making? How do emotions and cognitive rationality interact or telescope? For example, in situations of crisis, during the entrepreneurial resilience mechanism, during the entrepreneurial journey, on the path to building an entrepreneurial project, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– How can the various neuroscience approaches contribute to enriching the knowledge and practices of coaches, mentors and lecturers in setting up customized programs for entrepreneurs? How can different pedagogical tools promote learning and entrepreneurial action? For example, how does the social environment, the presence of exemplary figures and references, and the way entrepreneurs are supported and mentored influence the expected results (whether in terms of entrepreneurial intention, the development of entrepreneurial skills, the realization of the project, etc.)?    – To learn is to make mistakes… Is failure the key to success? If so, in what way? Are there any neuro-myths around entrepreneurship that need to be broken?  Is failure a lever for learning, or a source of entrepreneurial opportunity? How can the various support approaches, methods and techniques used in the event of failure facilitate rebound? Do they shed light on the risk of certain entrepreneurs slipping up or becoming addicted?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
