| description | In this paper we discuss the entrepreneurship phenomena from the
perspective of five supporting entrepreneurial organisations in the city
of Itabuna – Bahia, Brazil. The entrepreneurial environment, strategies
and challenges encountered in the opening, continuity and succession
of business formed the theoretical scope. We examined the modus
operandi of entrepreneurs in the management of micro and small firms.
The research used a qualitative approach, both exploratory and
bibliographic. The fieldwork was based on interviews and content
analysis systematised the information collected. The interview results
revealed strengths and weaknesses in the local business environment.
The results show a business setting with contradictory situations: on
the one hand, full of opportunities while on the other hand there are
many uncertainties to overcome. Most entrepreneurs develop
actions/strategies empirically, and experience is the most common
factor in business administration. |
