ABSTRACT

Community colleges and universities increasingly offer entrepreneurial training to reach a larger portion of underrepresented students. This paper offers insights into what techniques mentors should employ to increase entrepreneurial self-efficacy among their mentees, particularly for diverse community college students. Using a five-week, social entrepreneurship training program at community colleges in the United States Southwest, this paper utilizes semi-structured interviews to understand the challenges and techniques that are associated with increasing mentees’ entrepreneurial self-efficacy. Findings suggest that time and resources are the major constraints cited by both students and mentors. However, when mentors utilize storytelling, active listening, and open communication, they can further increase their mentees’ entrepreneurial self-efficacy. These insights offer a valuable in-depth qualitative understanding of mentoring approaches that similar programs can integrate into their curricula.

提高社区学院有抱负的企业家在指导关系方面的自我效能

摘要

社区学院和大学越来越多地提供创业培训,以覆盖更多代表性不足的学生。本文提供了关于导师应采用哪些技术来提高其学员的创业自我效能感的见解,特别是对于不同的社区大学生而言。本文使用美国西南部社区学院为期五周的社会创业培训计划,利用半结构化访谈来了解与提高受指导者的创业自我效能相关的挑战和技巧。调查结果表明,时间和资源是学生和导师都提到的主要限制因素。然而,当导师利用讲故事、积极倾听和开放式沟通时,他们可以进一步提高学员的创业自我效能感。这些见解为类似项目可以融入其课程的指导方法提供了有价值的深入定性理解。
