The latest BRQ – Business Research Quarterly (journal of the Spanish Academy of Management, ACEDE) features a Special Issue on Entrepreneurship & Well-Being. These papers push the frontier on how entrepreneurial life shapes (and is shaped by) mental health, identity, coping, and thriving. Here are the highlights-with authors-so you can dive straight in:
