REVISING ENTREPRENEURIAL ORIENTATION (EO) IN SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP, QUALITATIVE EVIDENCE FROM WORK INTEGRATION SOCIAL ENTERPRISES (WISES) FROM POLAND

Abstrakt

Entrepreneurial behaviour and entrepreneurial orientation (EO) of (commercial) entrepreneurship. have received significant scholarly attention in entrepreneurship and management research However, there are insufficient attempts discussing such behaviour and EO in non-profit, and particularly social entrepreneurship context, arguing that EO is higher in such contexts, or remains the same, some new EO dimensions are proposed, existing EO dimensions revised and redefined. In this study we ask how EO can be reconstructed and redefined in social entrepreneurship, especially in the area of work and social integration. Using exploratory, multiple-case, approach, based on purposive sample of 4 work and social integration enterprises (WISEs) as non-profit limited companies, we provide insights and suggestions for entrepreneurial orientation dimensions. We deliver a number of theoretical propositions on: performance, revise and discuss EO dimensions such as proactivity and innovativeness, risk taking, autonomy, but also propose new EO dimensions such as cooperation, performance of multiple roles.
