“…Cardon and Kirk (2015) found that whereas inventing and founding passion were related to entrepreneurial persistence, developing passion was not. Similarly, Lopez et al (2018) found a strong link between entrepreneurial passion for inventing and founding and taking action. However, in contrast Cardon et al (2013) found that only passion for founding and developing were related to entrepreneurial persistence.…”

“…In arguing for a positive relationship, they draw on identity theory, highlighting that individuals are more likely to identify with and feel more passionate about things if they feel confident at doing them. Drawing on regulatory focus theory, Lopez et al (2018) found that when entrepreneurs appraised constraints as opportunities they displayed higher levels of entrepreneurial passion towards inventing and founding.…”

“…Although Cardon et al’s (2013) sub‐scales for passion towards inventing, founding, and developing activities have been the most widely used in subsequent empirical work (24 empirical studies at the individual level), there has been a great deal of inconsistency in how they have been used. For example, some researchers chose to focus on entrepreneurial passion in relation to one or two activities rather than all three activities (e.g., Adomako, Mole, Murnieks, & Franklin, 2019; Biraglia & Kadile, 2017; Campos, 2017; Kang, Matusik, Kim, & Phillips, 2016; Lopez et al, 2018; Huyghe, Knockaert, & Obschonka, 2016; Mueller et al, 2017; Mumi et al, 2018; Shockley & Turner, 2016), while others have focused on entrepreneurial passion towards all three activities, but used previous versions of the Cardon et al (2013) scale that did not measure identity centrality (Stenholm & Renko, 2016). Others added additional items that had been removed in the process in validating the scale (Adomako, Zheng, & Ahsan, 2018; Adomako et al, 2019; Cardon & Kirk, 2015; Drnovsek et al, 2016; Huyghe et al, 2016).…”

The present study undertakes a comprehensive and critical review of the body of empirical work on entrepreneurial passion. In particular, we document how the “first generation” of research on entrepreneurial passion and work passion in entrepreneurs has gained growing attention in various sub‐fields of entrepreneurship research including entrepreneurial management, psychology, and finance. We provide an overview over theories used, definitions and measurements adopted, research methods utilized (e.g., qualitative vs. quantitative, survey‐based vs. experimental/intervention), the thematic focus of studies, and unit of investigation (e.g., individual vs. team). We not only flag the problems of inconsistencies and limitations with respect to theory use, the making of causal inferences, and the conceptualization and measurement of entrepreneurial passion in existing studies (e.g., jingle fallacies), but also review the antecedents and outcomes of entrepreneurial passion identified in prior work and work where it had been examined as a moderator. Following this, we offer a research agenda with concrete suggestions to act as a foundation for the “second generation” of entrepreneurial passion research that proactively addresses the issues and gaps identified in our review. Finally, we also highlight how insights from the entrepreneurial passion literature can inform scholarship on passion more broadly.

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to explore to what extent passionate family chief executive officers (CEOs) increase the entrepreneurial orientation (EO) of the family firm. More specifically, the authors investigate the impact of the family CEO’s entrepreneurial passion (EP) on the firm’s EO and explore whether the generational stage of the family CEO alters this relationship.Design/methodology/approachA multiple moderated regression model was used to test the hypothesized relationships, based on a unique sample of 140 private Belgian family firms. All respondent CEOs are members of the controlling family, meaning they are in a unique position to influence firm-level outcomes.FindingsThe results reveal a significant positive effect of a CEO’s EP on the family firm’s EO. The generational stage of the family CEO moderates the EP-EO relationship, so the positive effect is strongest in first-generation family CEOs and becomes negative in third- or later-generation CEOs.Originality/valueThis research builds on insights from imprinting and upper echelon theory to explore how the EP of the family CEO impacts the family firm’s EO. This study thereby contributes to research regarding the antecedents of EO and introduces the concept of EP in a family firm context. The present study further contributes to the literature on imprinting, as it empirically shows how the EP-EO relationship differs depending on the generational stage of the family CEO. In a family firm context, the generational stage acts as a contingency variable, determining the dominant theory (i.e. upper echelon or imprinting theory) in explaining the EP-EO relationship.

Entrepreneurial intention has become a focus of research as it is widely perceived as an indicator for a person to choose career as entrepreneur. Extending the research on determinants of entrepreneurial intention, this study examines the mediating role of entrepreneurial skill on the effect of family support, entrepreneurship education, and entrepreneurial passion towards entrepreneurial intention. This study applies convenience sampling to collect data. 270 responses from several universities in Indonesia were analyzed by using SMART PLS 3. The result reveals that entrepreneurial skill only mediates the impact of entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial passion on entrepreneurial intention. Entrepreneurial skills does not improve the effect of family support on entrepreneurial intention. This empirical evidence reveals the importance of entrepreneurial skills to influence Accounting students' decision to become entrepreneurs. Thus, Accounting program in universities also needs to incorporate a curriculum that enhance students' entrepreneurial knowledge and skills.
