Getting to the heart of the matter: The place and status of emotions in the training and coaching of the entrepreneur
The role of emotions in entrepreneurship research has generated significant interest over the past twenty years. Designated as a 'hot topic' in the early 2010s, 'entrepreneurial emotions' have since been at the heart of a growing body of work. While these studies provide information on the emotional challenges that face all new entrepreneurs, few have explored how entrepreneurial coaching can help them to cope. Indeed, it seems that entrepreneurship educational practices are still more focused on what the entrepreneur does and thinks, and less on how he or she feels. Current pedagogies and training continue to focus on developing a business plan or solving case studies and acquiring analytical skills, such as information gathering or problem solving. And although entrepreneurship training nowadays is more targeted towards developing entrepreneurial behavior and spirit, thanks to more action-based pedagogies, it still neglects the emotional prerequisites that these trajectories imply. Finally, mentors and coaches are not always properly equipped to identify, interact with and manage the emotions of entrepreneurs.
The aim of this special issue is thus to investigate the status and place of emotions in the training and coaching of entrepreneurs. It thus offers a platform to reflect on what it means to develop emotional competences and how this requirement can be translated into pedagogical practices.
