“…One shortcoming of methods is a lack of trustworthiness due to the context-specific nature of entrepreneurship and thus the limited applicability of largely untested prescriptions. Another frequently cited shortcoming is a lack of practical usefulness due to limited concrete actionable advice (Wolf and Rosenberg 2012).

That said, they caution against approaches at the other extreme, where only looking to the academic community ‘might lead to only topics for which there is a theory in the scientific community being studied’ (Wolf and Rosenberg, 2012: 183).…”
