A complex mix of attitudes, traits, motives, skills, capabilities, styles and mental mindsets contributes to entrepreneurial leadership. The current volume brings together perspectives from leading scholars in the entrepreneurship and management disciplines that inform our understanding of the nature of, requirements for, and implications resulting from entrepreneurial leadership. This important book is organized into eight key leadership imperatives: igniting entrepreneurial action; understanding entrepreneurial motivations, formulating entrepreneurial strategy; establishing entrepreneurial control; encouraging ethical entrepreneurial behaviour; dealing with entrepreneurial failure; creating effective entrepreneurial environments and demonstrating on-going vision and leadership. This collection will serve as a vital reference for scholars, teachers and doctoral students who wish to read and examine the most significant literature in the entrepreneurial leadership domain.
