Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurial Orientation, and Educational Entrepreneurship
Keywords:
Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurial Orientation, Educational EntrepreneurshipAbstract
This paper explores the constructs of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial orientation to education with an eye to applying these constructs in the field of education. It traces the evolution of the definition of entrepreneurship from seminal to contemporary literature and assesses various definitions before proposing the use of Morris et al.’s (1994) composite definition for use in research in education. It then investigates two conceptualizations of the entrepreneurial orientation construct, the composite approach and the multidimensional approach. The multidimensional approach proposed by Lumpkin and Dess (1996) is of particular interest, as it is applicable in a wide range of contexts. These understandings of entrepreneurial orientation are then applied to educational entrepreneurship in general and to the educational entrepreneurship framework proposed by Webber and Scott (2008) in particular. Key elements of the definition of entrepreneurship and of entrepreneurial orientation appear in the educational entrepreneurship framework, linking the framework to entrepreneurship research. The findings of this paper have implications for researchers who wish to situate their research on education within the long tradition of research on entrepreneurship.
