"No matter how full the river, it still wants to grow" is a Congolese proverb that speaks to room for continuous improvement The Resource-Based Theory primarily explains the creation of wealth in enterprises. Theories provide explanations, understanding, and significance to research. The Resource-Based Theory suggests that strategic resources give a firm the best positioning for long-term success. Organizations that own "strategic resources" have significant competitive advantages over those that do not. Resources can be either tangible or intangible. What intangible resources can you think of? Features of strategic resources include: 1. Valuable: Resources that improve efficiency and effectiveness while mitigating threats and opportunities. 2. Rare: Resources held by few or no other competitors. 3. Difficult to imitate: Resources that are legally protected or need time to develop fully. 4. Non-substitutable: Resources that would not allow for duplication of strategy by other businesses. The strategic resources and dynamic capability (an enterprise continuously updating what it can do to keep pace with changes in the environment) provide the business with a competitive edge, making wealth-creating enterprises market leaders. Do medium enterprises possess the strategic resources? Of course, they do. Medium enterprises may lack the capacity to harness strategic resources.

Thrilled to announce our latest publication in the Journal of Entrepreneurship in Emerging Economies: "Why Small Business Owners Get Demotivated? Modeling ‘Unwillingness to Grow’ Using ISM Approach." This study investigates the complex reasons behind why many small business owners, even after achieving initial success, become demotivated and hesitant to scale their businesses. We explored 30 personal attributes and identified 7 key factors that significantly influence this "unwillingness to grow." Key insights include the impact of: Absence of a strong network Lack of vision Reluctance to involve external consultants Small or absent founding teams And more... By employing Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) and MICMAC analysis, we’ve developed a comprehensive model to better understand these interrelationships. This research offers valuable insights for entrepreneurs, business consultants, and academics, providing a deeper understanding of the personal factors that can hinder business growth.

Dear LinkedIn network, I'm thrilled to share that our latest research paper has been published in the Journal of Workplace Behavior! Title: Entrepreneurial Experience and Its Impact on the Economic Sustainability of Resource-Constrained Enterprises 🔍 Journal: Journal of Workplace Behavior 📅 Publication Date: June 30, 2024 This study examines the mechanisms that link entrepreneurial experience (EE) to sustainable enterprise economic performance and further examines the moderating role of resource constraints on the relationship of entrepreneurs’ industry and market experience on enterprise sustainable economic performance. Resource constraints problems are not linear and need exceptional consideration. The study examines how an entrepreneur’s industry and market experience assist his/her ambition of enterprise economic sustainability in a resource-constrained environment. The study is causal and cross-sectional. A primary research survey was directed by employing structured questionnaires among 348 respondents of micro small and medium enterprises (MSMEs). The data was analyzed using SPSS version 25, and for regression results, Hayes process Macro. Findings suggested that entrepreneurs' experience plays a significant role in the sustainability of enterprise economic performance in the context of resource constraints of MSMEs. The study finds entrepreneurs' experience has a link with enterprise economic sustainability however; the resource constraints suppress business outcomes.  This study contributes to the literature on entrepreneurs’ experience on organizations’ economic sustainability. Whereas, resource constraints dampen the business's economic performance. This research recommends the entrepreneur must grow the business in order to develop a network for sustainable enterprise economic performance otherwise the resource constraints will hamper the growth and sustainability of enterprise performance.

🎓 Delighted to announce the publication of my latest PhD research paper titled "Entrepreneurial Fear of Failure and Exit Intention: The Moderating Role of a Conducive Social Environment" co-authored with Maggie Mei and Martina Battisti in the esteemed "International Small Business Journal: Researching Entrepreneurship" (ABS-3). 📝 This article investigates the relationship between entrepreneurial fear of failure, exit intentions, and the moderating impact of a conducive social environment, particularly business incubators, in the context of a developing economy. It provides empirical evidence on how different sources of fear of failure influence an entrepreneur’s intention to exit a venture.
