Effectual Entrepreneurship
Autor Saras Sarasvathy, Glen B. Wheatleyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 mar 2025
What you will discover in this book is that there is a science to entrepreneurship—a shared logic that can be observed in expert entrepreneurs across industries, geographic locations, and time. We call this logic effectuation – which means working with things already within your control to co-create valuable new futures with people who want to work with you.
At the heart of the book, you will find the four core principles of effectuation which expert entrepreneurs follow when creating new ventures, products, and markets:
- Start with your means
- Set affordable loss
- Form partnerships
- Leverage contingencies
- In this book, each of these core principles is explained through cases, stories, thought exercises, and a variety of practical applications.
A wealth of thought-provoking material, expert advice and practical techniques resides in these pages and on the accompanying website: www.effectuation.org.
