Framework For Female Entrepreneurship In China
Theoretical framework: an entrepreneurial model for Chinese women
entrepreneurship
The
institutional environment and internal motivations caused by push and pull
factors stimulate the potential entrepreneur’s expectations. The gap between
expectations and reality leads to entrepreneurial needs, which determine
entrepreneurial motivation. It is motivation that gives rise to entrepreneurial
decision directly; in addition, personal characteristics add variance.
The
model in Figure 2 shows that entrepreneurial behavior is impacted by both
motivation and personal characteristics. Entrepreneurial motivations, in turn,
are underpinned by the institutional environment as well as push and pull
factors. We use the framework in Figure 2 to examine specific factors
associated with female entrepreneurship in China, focusing on institutional
environment and personal characteristics. Pull factors include interest in
business, self-fulfillment, personal control, and maintaining technological
skills (Tong and Chen, 2004). Entrepreneurs motivated by pull factors often
resign from their stable work environments to create their own new ventures by
taking advantage of their accumulated financial savings as well as technological
skills or management experience. Push factors include low income, future
limitations on employee opportunities, loss of employment, and too much
competition for jobs (Hu and Zhu, 2006). Push and pull factors were prevalent
in the transformation of China. The interaction of internal and external
factors determines personal entrepreneurial behaviors. External institutional
environment and internal push or pull factors stimulate a person's expectations
and create the existence of entrepreneurial need, resulting in the formulation
of entrepreneurial motivation. Motivation and personal characteristics combine
as possible factors, which together lead to entrepreneurial behaviors (Ahl,
2006).
