Resumo: | This study examined whether entrepreneurs see themselves as good strategic planners and understand key factors that contribute to plan their business endeavors. This is a quantitative-qualitative research. 339 entrepreneurs ahead of businesses with at least 5 years of existence in Sao Paulo, Brazil answered a survey with 27 validated questions about planning, strategy and entrepreneurship. Data was analyzed through factorial analysis. Results showed six factors named external environment, innovation, internal environment, experience, mission and impulsiveness. The qualitative part of the study brought a discussion about these factors. The relevance of the internal and external environments is shown by the important relationship and influence that these may exercise in the performance of the enterprise, including information about best practices of the market in the production of products/services in comparison to internal strengths and weaknesses. In contrast to environmental uncertainty and variations, that makes the planning effort extremely difficult for entrepreneurs. We suggest that their personal abilities can compensate the lack of planning, including their innovative ability together with accumulated experience. Thanks to these qualities, entrepreneurs are constantly honing their abilities to create and manage their businesses and, over time, achieving success. The factors rose on the analysis shows that the strategic planning initiatives of entrepreneurs balance both environmental facts and personal abilities. The theoretical approach of effectuation and causation explains how entrepreneurs deal with this balance when deciding to act impulsively or planned in certain conditions, representing the key contribution of this article. |

Este estudo examinou se os empreendedores se vêem como planejadores estratégicos e procurou entender os fatoreschaveque contribuem no desenvolvimento de seus negócios. Trata-se de uma pesquisa quantitativa-qualitativa.Participaram da pesquisa 339 empreendedores que estão à frente de seus negócios pelo menos há 5 anos em São Paulo,Brasil. Um questionário com 27 perguntas foi validado, contendo itens sobre planejamento, estratégia eempreendedorismo. Os dados foram analisados, inicialmente, por meio de análise fatorial que determinaram seis fatoresdenominados: ambiente externo, inovação, ambiente interno, experiência, missão e impulsividade. A parte qualitativado estudo trouxe uma discussão sobre esses fatores. A relevância dos ambientes, interno e externo, é mostrada pelarelação e importância que estes fatores podem exercer no desempenho da empresa, incluindo informações sobre asmelhores práticas de mercado na produção de produtos/serviços, em comparação com forças e fraquezas internas. Aincerteza e as variações do ambiente faz com que o esforço de planejar seja uma tarefa difícil para os empreendedores.Por outro lado, as habilidades pessoais, incluindo a sua capacidade inovadora, juntamente com a experiência acumuladapodem compensar a falta de planejamento. Graças a essas qualidades, os empreendedores estão constantementeaprimorando suas habilidades para criar e gerenciar seus negócios e, ao longo do tempo, alcançar o sucesso. Os fatoresem elevação, demonstrados na análise fatorial, indicam que as iniciativas dos empreendedores de fazer o planejamentoestratégico se equilibram entre os fatores ambientais e habilidades pessoais. A abordagem teórica, effectuation ecausation, explica como os empreendedores lidam com este equilíbrio no momento de decidir, agindo impulsivamenteou planejando em certas condições, o que representa a contribuição fundamental deste artigo.Universidade Nove de Julho - UNINOVE2014-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uninove.br/riae/article/view/1548110.5585/ijsm.v13i4.2060Revista Ibero-Americana de Estratégia; Vol 13, No 4 (2014): October/December; 107-121Revista Ibero-Americana de Estratégia; Vol 13, No 4 (2014): October/December; 107-1212176-0756reponame:Revista Ibero Americana de Estratégia - RIAEinstname:Revista Ibero-Americana de Estratégia (RIAE)instacron:RIEOEIenghttps://periodicos.uninove.br/riae/article/view/15481/7563https://periodicos.uninove.br/riae/article/downloadSuppFile/15481/12137Copyright (c) 2014 Iberoamerican Journal of Strategic Managementhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNassif, Vânia Maria JorgeHashimoto, MarcosAmaral, Derly Jardim2021-02-22T20:23:30Zoai:https://periodicos.uninove.br:article/15481Revistahttps://periodicos.uninove.br/riaePRIhttps://periodicos.uninove.br/riae/oai||bennycosta@yahoo.com.br2176-07562176-0756opendoar:2021-02-22T20:23:30Revista Ibero Americana de Estratégia - RIAE - Revista Ibero-Americana de Estratégia (RIAE)false |
