Here's a new paper on #passion in the Journal of Business Venturing! I wrote it with two great friends and colleagues: Anne Domurath and Simon Taggar. Oddly, we are all reported to be working at LUT University in Finland...but that only applies to me. Anne and Simon are at the Lazaridis School of Business & Economics at Wilfrid Laurier University in Canada (as am I for a few more months). If you are interested: We studied the influence of inter- and intra-individual team dynamics on entrepreneurial passion change, and we looked at the relevance of passion change to important outcomes. We drew on person-fit theory and tested our hypotheses with data from a fabulous European accelerator program. This involved 343 team members nested in 79 newly formed teams. There's too many results to report here (a big complex study!) but as an example, we see that entrepreneurial intent is predicted by both (a) end-state levels of individual passion and (b) passion growth trajectories for inventing and founding (but not developing). We also see that team passion trajectories predict team performance. In a nutshell - if you study levels of passion at a point in time, you miss the powerful impacts of change that are captured when you analyze passion growth trajectories. #entrepreneurialpassion #passionchange #passiongrowth #entrepreneurshipresearch #entrepreneurialteams #newventures
