Resumo: | Purpose: The study aimed to verify (1) whether there is difference of entrepreneurial potential between Successful Entrepreneurs and Entrepreneurs who have failed; and (2) whether there are variables that may work as a means of prediction to the success or failure of the entrepreneur.Originality/Gap/Relevance/Implications: It brings up an innovative approach to the entrepreneurship researches, which main content is in the empirical operationalization of success and failure on business for the testing of specific hypothesis and the identification of the antecedents and consequences of entrepreneurial potential.Key methodological aspects: The research was conducted on a descriptive and quantitative approach. We applied the Scale of Entrepreneurial Potential in 246 entrepreneurs, which 100 correspond to the analysis criteria, operationally, as successful entrepreneurs (n = 50) and entrepreneurs who failed (n = 50). Data were analysed by statistics techniques of logistic regression and Student’s t test.Summary of key results: Results show that the successful entrepreneur has higher scores in Entrepreneur Potential Scale than the entrepreneur who failed, in which the main convergence between entrepreneurial potential and business success is the setting business goals. In the investigated sample, the gender showed being a strong predictor of business success, indicating that men have 2.8 times greater chance of success in business than women.Key considerations/conclusions: For us, the results found shed light on crucial elements to the explanation of business success and corroborate recent results brought by research on entrepreneurship and gender. |

Aplicamos la Escala de Potencial Emprendedor en 246 empresarios, de los cuales 100 entraron en los criterios de análisis como empresarios que tuvieron éxito (n=50) e empresarios que fracasaron (n=50). Los datos fueron analizados mediante técnicas de regresión Logística y test t de Student.Síntesis de los principales resultados: Los resultados muestran que el empresario exitoso tiene puntuaciones más altas en la Escala de Potencial Emprendedor que el empresario que ha fallado. La principal convergencia entre el potencial empresarial y el éxito empresarial fue el establecimiento de metas para el negocio. En la muestra investigada, el género mostró ser un fuerte predictor de éxito en los negocios, lo que indica que hombres tienen 2,8 veces más posibilidades de éxito en los negocios que mujeres.Principales consideraciones/conclusiones: Los resultados arrojan luz sobre elementos cruciales para la explicación del éxito empresarial y corrobora los resultados recientes presentados por estudios sobre emprendimiento y género.Objetivo: O estudo teve por objetivo verificar (1) se há diferença de potencial empreendedor entre Empreendedores de Sucesso e Empreendedores que fracassaram; e (2) se há variáveis que podem ser consideradas preditoras do sucesso ou fracasso do empreendedor.Originalidade/Lacuna/Relevância/Implicações: Traz-se uma abordagem inovadora para a pesquisa em empreendedorismo, cujo teor principal está na operacionalização empírica do sucesso e do fracasso empresarial para o teste de hipóteses específicas e a identificação dos antecedentes e consequentes do potencial empreendedor.Principais aspectos metodológicos: A pesquisa foi conduzida em caráter descritivo e de abordagem quantitativa.
