New article in the “Journal of General Management” by Baris Istipiler

The intercontinental team of authors assumes that psychological capital has a positive effect on recognising opportunities, as it promotes motivation, creativity and a willingness to take risks. The authors then explain how RiCH helps entrepreneurs with high psychological capital to recognise actionable opportunities. This is the case because RiCH enables entrepreneurs to deal with the anxiety associated with the potential loss of resources related to inherently uncertain opportunities. The article draws on a sample of 208 entrepreneurs interviewed in Ghana and provides support for these conjectures.
