This course offers theories and research relevant to the human factor in entrepreneurships: the founder, the entrepreneurial team, first employees, dyadic developmental relationships, entrepreneurial social capital, and ecosystem networks. It offers a multidisciplinary perspective which provides a unique way of understanding how individuals, dyads, teams, and social networks interact, cocreate, and influence the emergence, development, and growth of new ventures and beyond. Students will be able to learn a set of psychology and sociology-based skills and knowledge that will help them to make sense of the role of human factor in entrepreneurial and innovation-driven processes across various organizational contexts.
