Tiivistelmä: | Through an empirical study of the heads of the UK's top independent companies, comparing them with sample norms and a management control group, the paper re-examines the question of whether there is an entrepreneurial leadership personality profile. Several distinctive features are reported and discussed. Contrary to common stereotypes, the leaders are not openminded risk-takers so much as singleminded, thickskinned, dominating individuals. Results are discussed within the frame of the new discipline of evolutionary psychology. |
