“…The main thing is that the community of insureds, the MIC participants, usually make a wise decision to allocate a certain amount of money for this purpose. Thus, insurers as co-owners of MICs express an interest in minimizing the cost of doing business (Rubin et al, 2018 ).…”

In this article, the authors introduce mutual insurance as a constructive component of the modern entrepreneurial landscape aimed at the protection of the wealth-related interests of the participants of the mutual insurance company (mutual insurance society, friendly society, etc.). Analyzing mutual insurance, the authors display it from the standpoint of entrepreneurship and assume that such companies (MICs) are among the insurance market actors. The specific feature of MICs is that they form the community of their members-policyholders. As far as members of each organization of this kind are its co-owners, they carry out some critical entrepreneurial activity functions. The object of this research is represented by the insurance market of the Russian Federation, through the prism of which the degree of development of MICs was demonstrated, and the barriers to its infrastructure growth were determined.

“…One of the appeals of the competency-based approach is that it supports the proposition that entrepreneurship can be taught (Dickson et al, 2008;Fayolle et al, 2005;Kuratko, 2005). It also allows entrepreneurship educators to argue that entrepreneurial competencies (such as innovativeness, proactiveness and risk-taking) are distinct from general business competencies and thus can be taught outside a business school context (Chandler and Jansen, 1992;Morris and Kaplan, 2014;Rubin et al, 2018). It also addresses the implicit long chain of causal reasoning that links competency training with entrepreneurial success as depicted in Figure 1 (Glackin et al, 2018).…”

“…Literature review Developmental and experiential pedagogies have long been the tools of entrepreneurship educators in their efforts to impact entrepreneurial activities (Albornoz, 2011). Yet, there have been ongoing changes to the pedagogical questions of what to teach and how to teach it as educators continue to learn more about how students acquire, retain and apply knowledge and skills and, consequently, which pedagogies are most effective in higher education (Neck and Greene, 2011;Rubin et al, 2018). To answer these questions, the goals and objectives of entrepreneurship education must be considered.…”

“…Since its infancy, one clear purpose of entrepreneurship education has been to teach students how to establish new ventures (Rasmussen and Sorheim, 2006). Even with this singular goal, inquiries continue regarding the best practices in terms of organization and content (Neck and Greene, 2011;Ronstadt, 1987;Rubin et al, 2018). Neck and Green (2011) report that gaining consensus about the essential and most valuable learning outcomes from entrepreneurship education continues to be elusive, although fostering an entrepreneurial mindset (McGrath and MacMillan, 2000) and developing entrepreneurial competencies have generally emerged as leading outcomes.…”

PurposeA recent paper by Morris et al. (2013b) presented evidence that students can develop entrepreneurial competencies through international fieldwork. This paper explores whether the same results can be developed in a traditional classroom setting.Design/methodology/approachThe study is a systematic replication of the Morris study with the addition of a matched pair, quasi-experimental design, with a self-replication. Data were collected on 13 self-reported competencies at the start of a semester from two groups using the Morris instrument. The treatment group was exposed to a curriculum designed to teach entrepreneurial competencies, and both groups were re-surveyed at the end of the semester. The process was then repeated with a different cohort, one year later, to replicate the initial study.FindingsFive competencies saw significant increases in the first treatment group. However, only three of these competencies increased more in the treatment group than the control group. In the replication study, only one competency was significantly higher in the treatment group, and that competency was not one of the original three.Practical implicationsEducators and policymakers should select a curriculum that is valid and reliable. Entrepreneurship educators and policymaker should devote more time to evaluating the effectiveness of different pedagogical techniques for improving entrepreneurial competencies.Originality/valueTo the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first studies in entrepreneurship education to undertake a matched pair, quasi-experimental design with an in-study replication. The results indicate that serious inferential errors arise if simpler designs are used, even though such designs are the norm in entrepreneurship research.

The purpose of the article is to identify, systematize and structure personal prerequisites of people that are professionally important for successful entrepreneurship, in the context of interdisciplinary research into the phenomenon of entrepreneurship and its functional specifics. The understanding of entrepreneurship as a special type of professional activity, carried out in accordance with the request for it from society and its segments, extends to the analysis of the personal prerequisites for the professional development of modern entrepreneurs. Based on the psychological theory of activity, modern theories of abilities and on functional ideas about entrepreneurship as a type of professional activity, a professional-centric approach to assessing personal prerequisites that are important for successful entrepreneurship on a professional basis, as well as for the entrepreneurial professionalization of actors, is formulated. Special objects of consideration are clusters of professionally important prerequisites — people’s entrepreneurship ability, their personal competitiveness, ownership propensities. The illegality of synonymizing entrepreneurship as a type of activity and the entrepreneurship ability as a prerequisite for the success of this activity is argued. Entrepreneurship contains a readiness to make decisions, implement a program of action, reflect on the results of activity in an environment of comparative uncertainty of the market realities of the business environment, as well as to take on professional risks. The ownership propensities is interpreted as prerequisites that are professionally important for de facto entrepreneurs as business owners. It is shown that the personal competitiveness of the actors of this type of professional activity is of professional importance for successful entrepreneurship throughout the centuries-old history of reproducing the competitive nature of the entrepreneurship environment.
