Özet
Bu araştırmada, girişimcilerin motivasyonel ve bilişsel kişilik özellikleri ortaya konmakta ve girişimcilerle yöneticiler bu kişilik özellikleri açısından karşılaştırılarak benzer ve farklı yanlar belirlenmekte ve demografik değişkenlerin bu özelliklere yönelik herhangi bir etkisinin olup olmadığı sorgulanmaktadır. Survey yöntemi ve yazılı soru sorma tekniğinden yararlanılmış, örneklem İzmir, Denizli ve Bursa illerindeki girişimci (70) ve yöneticilerden (90) oluşmuştur. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre girişimcilerin başarı ve bağımsızlık gereksinimlerinin, yöneticilerin ise güç gereksinimlerinin diğer gereksinimlere oranla daha yüksek olduğu bulgulanmıştır. Girişimcilerin başarı ve bağımsızlık gereksinimleri yöneticilerden daha yüksektir. Yöneticilerin ise güç gereksiniminin girişimcilerden daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Kontrol odağı açısından ise iki grup arasında bir farklılık bulgulanmamıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucu, tek-çocuk olanların içsel kontrol odağı düzeylerinin ilk, ortanca ve son çocuklara göre daha yüksek olduğu, babası işletme sahibi olan girişimcilerin, babası memur, işçi ve küçük esnaf olanlara göre başarı gereksinimi düzeyinin daha yüksek olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır.
