Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
Is empathy merely a good thing for entrepreneurs? In contrast to the hitherto predominantly positive view in entrepreneurship literature, psychology and management scholars have recently adopted a more critical perspective. Transferring their findings, we provide a novel “too-much-of-a-good-thing” perspective on entrepreneurial empathy. We test our model against a dataset of 4,725 real entrepreneurs and demonstrate that empathy influences opportunity recognition, evaluation and exploitation in an inverted U-shaped pattern. We also show that these exploited opportunities then lead to higher amounts of achieved financial resources. These findings provide strong evidence for considering entrepreneurial empathy an important but highly ambiguous success factor.
