Using a simulation, the research conducts a survey of individual perceptions to examine team dynamics over a three-month period. Initial negative emotions on team tasks were found to lower intra-team trust, while positive emotions increased trust through team identification. Initial identification was associated with improved team outcomes. Through subsequent relationship conflict, increases in negative (positive) emotions lowers (raises) team cohesion and performance. For small businesses, the results suggest that leaders should address assigned tasks to help members mitigate initial negative emotions. Leaders should also monitor employee emotions as work progresses, given that affective attitudes continue to impact team outcomes. In addition, pairing employees with previous work experiences may help build team identification and so improve outcomes.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134629214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Educating for sustainability means students’ engagement in projects and initiatives that nurture a sustainable mindset. Values do matter when it comes to sustainability focus business. Using the Schwartz human value scale to address values at the heart of education for sustainability, and a sample of 236 undergraduate students, we found evidence that the value of benevolence moves up the scale on the values profile once the fourth-year students are exposed to projects and initiatives that nurture the development of students’ sustainable mindset. Understanding the values profile of undergraduate students should help practitioners, policy makers, and those on the frontlines of entrepreneurial education identify and develop entrepreneurs’ mindsets in addressing sustainable challenges.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"455 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131802795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The CEOs offer seven managerial considerations for post-pandemic organizational change and value creation. Specifically, the CEOs believe that honesty first, a focus on essentials, the human condition in decision making, the need for bold leadership, the necessity to embrace failures, managing the organizational culture, and fractal strategy are keys to success as we move forward after COVID-19. The last two years have been extraordinarily challenging for most businesses.

A practical framework for building resilience is recommended for use by the enterprises as part of contributing to the entrepreneurial revolution agenda. An online survey using Survey Monkey was used to collect data from MBEs from a national sample in Zimbabwe. Key findings from the study include overwhelming evidence of the negative financial impact of COVID-19 on the MBEs and its impact on supply chain disruption and customer service. Practical recommendations include the need for MBEs to utilize creative resourcefulness by identifying tangible and nontangible resources in their ecosystem and utilizing their learning curve experience in dealing with precious disruptions to develop coping strategies for new challenges. MBEs should invest in the well-being of their employees and communities to foster collaboration for resilience building.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124198260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding these issues can be an important contribution to the entrepreneurial revolution that promotes equal distribution of resources and social inclusion of MSMEs and their communities. Data were collected from MSMEs and assistance providers using face-to-face interviews. Key findings that have practical implications include varied drivers for utilizing assistance programs, context-driven barriers to accessing services, and the dynamic nature of sources of information. Practical implications include recommendations for policy makers to design targeted and differentiated programs, investment in inclusive awareness campaigns, and a migrant outreach engagement strategy. These strategies should be supported by an inclusive small business policy that promotes entrepreneurial revolution that enables equitable access to resources, enhancing income distribution and livelihoods of regional–rural MSMEs and their communities.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"180 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114000634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, little research focuses on the way SMEs that belong to a common network can develop or harmonize their common practices to reach market and stakeholder expectations. Using a grounded theory approach combined with an action research approach, we met 20 key actors in a network of retirement homes in France. We highlight the main barriers that prevent SMEs from implementing a CSR policy within their network. We point out that factors are not only about SME features but also depend on multilevel (environmental, organizational, and individual) dimensions that play an interacting role in the failure of CSR implementation.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114452725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Global business failures have not spared women entrepreneurs; hence, this study is very significant, as it may direct the path to new business venture creation by women entrepreneurs. The provision of financial support to a business enterprise does not guarantee its success or growth. The study explored the role access to finance plays in entrepreneurship development, the strategies that stimulate women’s entrepreneurship, and the relationship between access to finance and entrepreneurship development. We used beta coefficients to quantify the effects of access to finance on entrepreneurship development. The findings revealed that women entrepreneurs find it difficult to access cheap and adequate financial services. The study recommends increased funding, development of good policies, and entrepreneurship training and education for women-owned businesses in order to strengthen women’s entrepreneurship development.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"109 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115117557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The average age of small business owners in many industrialized countries is on the rise, and the average term of business ownership is 30 years. We believe that entrepreneurial ecosystems are perfectly positioned to include aging business owners as key actors, but to date, they have not. We build on this idea and offer evidence through triangulation of workshop findings with themes from entrepreneurial ecosystems, resulting in four gaps in support: foundational resources, funding, events, and aging in one’s community. We hope that it will generate conversation, reflection, and actions resulting in age-friendly entrepreneurial ecosystems that serve the span between start-up and retirement.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114766979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet it has been constantly overlooked in the existing literature that uncertainty is never constant. To fill this gap, we study how the application of effectuation varies as uncertainty changes. Our findings suggest that when entrepreneurs of small businesses perceive uncertainty to increase from low to middle levels, they will reduce application of effectual logics in order to protect their gains. When they perceive uncertainty to increase from middle to extreme levels, however, they will increase adoption of effectual logics in order to ensure survival. More interestingly, for firms with higher entrepreneurial orientation (EO), the curvilinear effect of uncertainty on effectual logics will be dampened. We suspect this is due to the fact that high EO firms rely on their entrepreneurial strategic posture to compete in the industry, rather than let uncertainty dictate how they proceed.","PeriodicalId":246224,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the International Council for Small Business","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125374437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
