Encouraging Entrepreneurship as a Career Path for Management Students

Abstract

The advancement of entrepreneurship is crucial for the progress of any developing nation globally. Prior investigations indicate that personal intentions significantly influence the decision to pursue entrepreneurship rather than employment with others. However, upon reviewing the existing literature, it becomes evident that there has been limited substantial research focused on elucidating the influence of geographical, psychological, and demographic factors. This paper aims to explore the connections between perceived geographical factors essential for entrepreneurship development, perceived psychological factors, and perceived demographic factors necessary for entrepreneurship development, along with their relationship to expected outcomes among management students. This paper utilized a structured questionnaire featuring a “5-point Likert scale”. It was given out to the management students, and as a consequence, there were an aggregate of 251 responses collected for the research study. The model has been developed utilizing “Smart PLS 3.0”. The results demonstrate a notable correlation among all the variables examined in the study.
