Opportunity focused understanding of entrepreneurship

Core of entrepreneurship - opportunities
(1) why, when and how opportunities for the creation of goods and services in the future arise in an economy;
(2) why, when, and how some are able to discover and exploit these opportunities while others cannot or do not;
(3) what are the economic, psychological, and social consequences of this pursuit of a future market not only for the pursuer, but also for the other stakeholders and for society as a whole. Venkataraman (1997)

Effectuation vs causation • There are different approaches to taking actions, solving
problems and decision making:
• Effectuation - the future is unpredictable yet controllable, entrepreneurs create opportunities, effectual models begin with given means and seek to create new ends, based on the premise „To the extent we can control the future, we do not need to predict it”
• Causation – rooted in prediction, causal models begin with an effect to be created, based on the premise „To the extent we can predict the future, we can control it”
Sarasvathy 2008

Causual reasoning • predictive and very functional area in business
• begins with a pre-determined goal and a given set of means and seeks to identify the optimal – fastest, cheapest, most efficient, etc. – alternative to achieve the given goal.
• involves the creation of additional alternatives to achieve the given goal.
• causal reasoning may or may not involve creative thinking. The form of creative causal reasoning is often used in strategic thinking.

Effectual reasoning
• does not begin with a specific goal. Instead, it begins with a given set of means and allows goals to emerge contingently over time from the imagination and aspirations of the founders and the people they interact with.
• effectual reasoning is creative

Effectual reasoning
• entrepreneur selects alternatives based on the affordability of experimentation and hedges experiments by making alliances with and getting pre-commitments from potential suppliers, competitors, and customers
• decision criteria are the affordability of experimentation and the degree to which an uncertain outcome can be controlled through alliances and pre-commitments
Chandler et al. (2007)

5 principles of effectuation

• Affordable loss principle → Invest what you can afford to lose
• Crazy Quilt principle → Build a network of self-selected stakeholders
• Lemonde principle → Embrace and leverage surprises (every day)
• Pilot-in-the-plane principle → The future comes from what people do
