Resumo: This study aims to identify the dimensions and basic variables of entrepreuners’ mental models and their impacts on performance of their companies. For this, we conducted a qualitative study with six entrepreneurs and a quantitative survey with 113 companies in the metal-mechanic sector, from Serra Gaucha,Brazil. Among the contributions of this work, first we propose a theoretical model that identifies seven dimensions of entrepreneurs' mental models related to organizational performance. A second contribution is the proposition of a scale to measure the mental models of business leaders. The survey results confirm that the proposed scale fits well to the dimensions identified in the literature review. On the other hand, from among the seven dimensions presented, those related to knowledge, relationships, mission and strategy, creativity and vocation had a significant impact on performance of organizations analyzed. It was found that 27.5% of the organizational performance explanatory power can be associated to entrepreneurs’ mental models forming dimensions.

Para esto, se realizó una búsqueda cualitativa con seis empresarios, y una búsqueda cuantitativa de 113 empresas del sector de la ingeniería mecánica en Serra Gaúcha. Entre las contribuciones de este trabajo, hay que destacarse primero la proposición de un modelo teórico en el que se identifican siete dimensiones de modelos mentales de los empresarios, relacionadas con el desempeño de la organización. Una segunda contribución es la propuesta de una escala para medir los modelos mentales de los líderes empresariales. Los resultados del estudio confirman que la escala propuesta se ajusta bien a las dimensiones indicadas en la revisión de la literatura y de entre las siete dimensiones que se muestran, aquellas relacionadas con el conocimiento, las relaciones, la misión y la estrategia, la creatividad y la vocación, presentaron un impacto significativo en el rendimiento de las organizaciones analizadas. Se comprobó que 27,5% de la capacidad explicativa del rendimiento de la organización se puede asociar a las dimensiones educativas de modelos mentales de los empresarios.Este trabalho objetiva identificar as dimensões e variáveis básicas dos modelos mentais dos empreendedores, bem como os seus impactos sobre o desempenho de suas empresas. Para isso, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa com seis empreendedores, e uma pesquisa quantitativa com 113 empresas do setor metalomecânico na Serra Gaúcha. Dentre as contribuições deste trabalho, destaca-se, primeiramente a proposição de um modelo teórico no qual se identificam sete dimensões dos modelos mentais dos empreendedores relacionadas ao desempenho organizacional. Uma segunda contribuição é a proposição de uma escala para a mensuração dos modelos mentais dos dirigentes das empresas. Os resultados da pesquisa confirmam que a escala proposta se ajustou bem às dimensões identificadas na revisão da literatura e que dentre as sete dimensões apresentadas, as que estão relacionadas ao conhecimento, ao relacionamento, à missão e à estratégia, à criatividade e à vocação apresentaram um impacto significativo sobre o desempenho das organizações analisadas. Verificou-se que 27,5% do poder explicativo do desempenho organizacional pode estar associado às dimensões formadoras dos modelos mentais dos empreendedores.Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul2014-10-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionarticleartículoAvaliado pelos paresartigoapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/read/article/view/43234Electronic Review of Administration; Vol. 20 No. 3 (2014): EDIÇÃO 79 - SET/DEZ 2014; 713-739Revista Electrónica de Administración; Vol. 20 Núm. 3 (2014): EDIÇÃO 79 - SET/DEZ 2014; 713-739Revista Eletrônica de Administração; v. 20 n. 3 (2014): EDIÇÃO 79 - SET/DEZ 2014; 713-7391413-23111980-4164reponame:REAd (Porto Alegre.
