摘要

根据欧盟开发的创业能力框架（EntreComp）中广泛而全面的能力范围，本文提出了一种配置方法，以定义导致数字自由职业者成功的各种能力组合。这项研究使用卡片分类技术，收集了来自四个欧洲国家的60名经验丰富的数字自由职业者的观点。数据分析采用统计建模和模糊定性比较分析。结果表明，虽然没有单一的能力对成功至关重要，但特定的能力确实很突出。研究揭示了各种能力组合，形成了成功的数字自由职业者的四种特征：战略企业家、远见创新者、战略财务经理和金融投资者。这些结果不再是数字自由职业者的“超级英雄”形象，其特点是要求很高的知识、态度和技能，而是提供了四种形象，每一种形象的特点是一组高度相关和互补的能力。

Mapping success profiles for digital freelancers: A configurational approach using EntreComp competencies

Drawing on the broad and comprehensive range of competencies in the Entrepreneurial Competence Framework (EntreComp) developed by the European Union, this article presents a configurational approach to defining various combinations of competencies that lead to success as a digital freelancer. The study gathered the views of 60 experienced digital freelancers from four European countries, using the card-sorting technique. Data analysis was conducted using statistical modelling and fuzzy qualitative comparative analysis. The results indicate that while no single competence is essential for success, specific competencies do stand out. Various combinations of competencies are revealed, shaping four profiles of successful digital freelancers: Strategic Entrepreneur, Visionary Innovator, Strategic Financial Manager, and Financial Investor. These results move away from the “superhero” profile of the digital freelancer, characterised by a demanding and high level of knowledge, attitudes, and skills, and instead offer four profiles, each characterised by a narrower set of highly relevant and complementary competencies.

期刊介绍： Technology in Society is a global journal dedicated to fostering discourse at the crossroads of technological change and the social, economic, business, and philosophical transformation of our world. The journal aims to provide scholarly contributions that empower decision-makers to thoughtfully and intentionally navigate the decisions shaping this dynamic landscape. A common thread across these fields is the role of technology in society, influencing economic, political, and cultural dynamics. Scholarly work in Technology in Society delves into the social forces shaping technological decisions and the societal choices regarding technology use. This encompasses scholarly and theoretical approaches (history and philosophy of science and technology, technology forecasting, economic growth, and policy, ethics), applied approaches (business innovation, technology management, legal and engineering), and developmental perspectives (technology transfer, technology assessment, and economic development). Detailed information about the journal's aims and scope on specific topics can be found in Technology in Society Briefings, accessible via our Special Issues and Article Collections.
