Entrepreneurial effectiveness and achievement in Arab culture: new evidence to rekindle interest in an old predictor
Article Abstract:
The relationship between need for achievement (n-Ach), entrepreneurial effectiveness and satisfaction among Jordanian entrepreneurs is analyzed. Results show that subjects with high n-Ach were highly satisfied and effective. The level of achievement was not a function of existing business conditions. Findings further indicate that achievement training and education are important factors in promoting entrepreneurship in Jordan.
