This study uses empirical data collected from the entrepreneurial working environments to examine and reason the effect of entrepreneurial behaviors on the stagnation of entrepreneurship in Germany and how these behaviors are influenced by the national cultural characteristics, practices and values. Using ethnographic research techniques and Grounded Theory method, we observe that the entrepreneurial behaviors—in the context of managing adversities for the first time—are impacted by the German cultural practices and characteristics: (1) “Do-it-Yourself” culture, (2) perfectionism and (3) social trust issues. Consequently, we suggest that these practices reflect the relevance of the behaviors’ reasoning to uncertainty avoidance and risk aversion as cultural values in Germany. This study describes and reasons the behaviors of entrepreneurs in their early venturing stage, and contributes to the new area of research that seeks more links between the entrepreneurial behaviors and the cultural values, and how both impact the entrepreneurial growth and success.

为什么德国的创业精神较少?行为推理视角

本研究使用从创业工作环境中收集的实证数据来检验和推理创业行为对德国创业停滞的影响,以及这些行为如何受到民族文化特征、实践和价值观的影响。使用民族志研究技术和扎根理论方法,我们观察到创业行为——在第一次管理逆境的背景下——受到德国文化实践和特征的影响:(1)“自己动手”文化,( 2)完美主义和(3)社会信任问题。因此,我们建议这些做法反映了行为推理与不确定性规避和风险规避作为德国文化价值观的相关性。
