Book Description
Entrepreneurship is an academic discipline that, despite decades of growth in research and teaching activity lacks a traditionally distinct or common theoretical domain. In this book, editors Thomas N. Duening and Matthew Metzger explore entrepreneurial identity, facets of entrepreneurship education in forming and developing this identity and the development of entrepreneurs in general. Chapters focus primarily on macro-level identity issues (i.e., how do these entrepreneurial archetypes form, persist, and sometimes change) or micro-level identity issues (i.e., how can educators and resource providers identify, communicate, and incentivize identity construction among aspiring entrepreneurs), topics that will be of interest to researchers and students alike.

Book Description
Identities can potentially serve as powerful elements that both drive, and are shaped by, entrepreneurial actions. Entrepreneurial identity is a complex construct with multidisciplinary roots, and therefore there is scope to more fully enrich our theoretical understanding of identity and identity formation, at both individual and organizational levels, and their relationship to entrepreneurial processes, practices and activities. This book highlights two key features of contemporary research on entrepreneurial identity. First, to see it as a dynamic rather than a (relatively) fixed and unchanging feature, shaped by different life episodes. It is increasingly fluid, multilevel and multidimensional, comprising multiple subidentities rather than a univocal (and unchanging) self. As such, it has a profound effect not only on the way we feel, think and behave, but also on what we aim to achieve. Accordingly, it is vital that its dynamics are better understood, particularly in determining how actors behave in an entrepreneurial context. The book’s second focus is on identity work as the process through which entrepreneurial identities are formed and shaped, and the contributors demonstrate how the dynamics of identity formation relate to entrepreneurial outcomes in a range of individual and organizational contexts. This book was originally published as a special issue of Entrepreneurship & Regional Development.

Book Description
Why do entrepreneurs constantly search for success, when it is happiness they are after? It is this question that many never stop to think about on their entrepreneurial journey. This blind push has created a crisis that is driving many entrepreneurs down the wrong path, and leading to lives of complete unhappiness, frustration, and a loss of who they are. Regardless of their success.Despite how they feel, they push even harder hoping that they will be able to move forward and feel better once they reach the next level. But no matter what they do, or what level they are at, these deep feelings, thoughts, and emotions, never go away.The constant barrage of emotions, influence, and beliefs has only strengthened this crisis. It has become a large epidemic that very few people are talking about or even realize exists. It is destroying who entrepreneurs are, and ultimately keeping them from what they really want."The Entrepreneurial Identity Crisis" aims to answer why this is happening to so many entrepreneurs, and why so many of them don't even realize they have been drawn into this crisis.Along with explaining why this is happening, this book aims to show entrepreneurs what they can do to not only reach the level of success that they want, but to feel happy, content, and fulfilled as well.
