The Relation between Entrepreneurial Personality and Strategic Decision Making

A proper conceptualization of entrepreneurship, entrepreneurs, strategic decision making and personality types has become necessary, as the earliest attempt to explore personality types in relation to entrepreneurs was by Schumpeter in 1928. Not much has been said in literature since then and this paper aims to review relevant literature and propose a conceptual framework to understanding the entrepreneurial personality types while explaining the link to strategic decision making styles. Conceptual analysis of relevant taxonomies was used and a conceptual framework developed and these should serve as the bases for further empirical investigations.
