Abstract

Purpose

Focused feedback, such as mentoring and coaching, is a crucial ingredient for generating the intellectual capital needed for successful venture creation and has become a structural resource offered to entrepreneurs in business incubator/accelerator programs. Yet so far, literature has remained silent on the way that entrepreneurs differ in their engagement with focused feedback in such programs. This study poses the question of how focused feedback engagement shapes cognitive development during value creation (i.e. business opportunity development), aimed at the construction of a taxonomy of such feedback engagement.

Design/methodology/approach

Focusing on cognitive learning outcomes, we carried out a qualitative analysis using NVivo to perform content analysis on the logbooks of 70 entrepreneurs engaged in business opportunity development in a highly regarded accelerator program.

Findings

Results show that engagement with focused feedback and its effects relate to the state of tangibility of the entrepreneur’s value offer and to the amount of prior entrepreneurial experience. We also develop a promising taxonomy to classify entrepreneurs on their learning needs and outcomes (e.g. procedural versus declarative knowledge).

Originality/value

This study brings together types of human learning (types of knowledge acquired) with types of focused feedback. This connection has been speculated to exist in entrepreneurial settings; this study provides strong initial evidence that argues for more explicit consideration in practice. Adding the intellectual capital perspective further enabled this study to better address implications for practice as well as motivate powerful new directions for research.

企业家如何在价值创造过程中参与反馈--分类法
目的有针对性的反馈,如指导和辅导,是产生成功创业所需的智力资本的关键要素,已成为企业孵化器/加速器项目中提供给创业者的结构性资源。然而,迄今为止,对于创业者在此类项目中参与重点反馈的方式有何不同,相关文献仍保持沉默。本研究提出了在价值创造(即商机开发)过程中,集中反馈参与如何影响认知发展的问题,旨在构建此类反馈参与的分类标准。研究结果研究结果表明,参与集中反馈及其效果与创业者所提供价值的有形化状态以及先前创业经验的多少有关。我们还开发了一种很有前景的分类法,可根据创业者的学习需求和结果(如程序性知识与陈述性知识)对他们进行分类。原创性/价值这项研究将人类学习的类型(获取知识的类型)与集中反馈的类型结合在一起。据推测,创业环境中也存在这种联系;本研究提供了有力的初步证据,证明在实践中需要更明确的考虑。加入知识资本的视角进一步使本研究能够更好地阐述对实践的影响,并为研究提供了有力的新方向。
