Despite an estimated 582 million entrepreneurs globally, stereotypes plague the social cognitive concept of “the entrepreneur,” shaping assumptions of what entrepreneurship is while being far from representative of possible entrepreneurial identities. “Heroic” stereotypes of entrepreneurs (e.g., Steve Jobs or Elon Musk) stemming from the popular media shape the assumptions of students entering entrepreneurship classrooms. These stereotypes are strong and limiting, framing entrepreneurship as attainable only through exceptional skill and talent, and are often characterized by exclusively masculine qualities. Involving identity work in entrepreneurship education can expose the limitations that stereotypes impose on students aspiring to be entrepreneurs and introduce more heterogeneity. The use of narrative cases allows educators to facilitate a threefold approach: (1) raising awareness of stereotypes, (2) creating a structure for more realistic examples and socialization through narrative comparisons and (3) teaching students the basics of identity management for sustaining their entrepreneurial careers. The approach encourages direct conversations about what is—and who can become—an entrepreneur and reveals the limiting beliefs that students may bring with them into the classroom. Such discussion informs the educator on how to foster students’ entrepreneurial identity and empower their identity management.

相关的企业家:打击创业教育中的陈规定型观念

尽管全球估计有5.82亿企业家,但定型观念困扰着“企业家”的社会认知概念,塑造了关于什么是企业家身份的假设,但远未代表可能的企业家身份。流行媒体对企业家的“英雄”刻板印象(例如,史蒂夫·乔布斯或埃隆·马斯克)塑造了学生进入企业家课堂的假设。这些陈规定型观念是强有力的和局限性的,将企业家才能定为只有通过出色的技能和才干才能实现的企业家,并且通常具有完全男性化的特征。将身份工作纳入创业教育可以暴露出刻板印象对有志于成为创业者的学生的局限性,并引入更多的异质性。叙事案例的使用使教育工作者可以采用三种方法:(1)提高对陈规定型观念的认识;(2)通过叙事比较,为更现实的例子和社会化创造一个结构;(3)向学生传授身份管理的基本知识,以维持他们的身份。创业生涯。这种方法鼓励就什么是企业家以及谁将成为企业家进行直接对话,并揭示出学生可能带入课堂的有限信念。这样的讨论将使教育者了解如何培养学生的创业身份并增强他们的身份管理能力。(2)通过叙述性比较创建一个更现实的例子和社会化的结构,(3)向学生教授身份管理的基础知识,以维持他们的创业生涯。这种方法鼓励就什么是企业家以及谁将成为企业家进行直接对话,并揭示出学生可能带入课堂的有限信念。这样的讨论将使教育者了解如何培养学生的创业身份并增强他们的身份管理能力。(2)通过叙述性比较创建一个更现实的例子和社会化的结构,(3)向学生教授身份管理的基础知识,以维持他们的创业生涯。这种方法鼓励就什么是企业家以及谁将成为企业家进行直接对话,并揭示出学生可能带入课堂的有限信念。这样的讨论将使教育者了解如何培养学生的创业身份并增强他们的身份管理能力。
