Öğe COVID-19 AND SMEs IN KOSOVO: ASSESSING EFFECT AND POLICY PREFERENCES(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2021) Krasniqi, Besnik A.; Kryeziu, Liridon; Bagis, Mehmet; Kurutkan, Mehmet Nurullah; Idrizi, SaraThe enforced lockdown and closure of businesses in response to the Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in economic crises across the globe, bringing the attention to entrepreneurship and its importance to economic recovery. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on SME's and the entrepreneurs' policy preferences based on firm size and industry type. To achieve this, evidence from a Business Support Centre Kosovo's (BSCK) survey involving 236 SME owners interviewed online is reported. Findings from SME survey suggest the problems with cash flow and reduction of customer demand, among others, are major problems faced by SME's across all firm size groups and industry types. Findings from factor analysis clustered SME policy preferences into three groups: policy preferences related to financing and liquidity constraints, market related and tax preferences. This study discusses some policy and managerial implications urging the need for more nuanced and variegated understanding of the effect of coronavirus pandemic on SMEs.Öğe Dark triad personality, motivational dynamics and nascent entrepreneurs entrepreneurial intentions: cross-country comparison(Springer, 2024) Kryeziu, Liridon; Bagis, Mehmet; Kurutkan, Mehmet Nurullah; Ates, CagdasThis research explores the relationships between the dark triad, motivational dynamics, and entrepreneurial intentions, as well as the moderating effect of the country on these relationships. Using a cross-sectional design, the study utilizes a sample of 701 new entrepreneurs from Turkey (n = 368) and Kosovo (n = 333). The findings indicate that narcissism positively influences entrepreneurial intentions. Additionally, psychopathy and Machiavellianism negatively impact motivational dynamics, while narcissism has a positive effect. Furthermore, the positive effects of motivational dynamics on entrepreneurial intentions have been confirmed. Mediation analysis reveals that individual motivations partially mediate the relationship between the dark triad and entrepreneurial intentions. Finally, the research results show that the country plays a moderating role in the relationships between narcissism and entrepreneurial intentions, personal attitudes and entrepreneurial intentions, psychopathy, and perceived behavioral control, and the need for achievement and narcissism with personal attitudes. Our study provides theoretical contributions as well as policy and managerial implications in the emerging field of entrepreneurship.Öğe The effect of entrepreneurship education on nascent entrepreneurs' entrepreneurial intentions: The mediating effect of individual motivations(Ios Press, 2023) Kryeziu, Liridon; Bagis, Mehmet; Kurutkan, Mehmet Nurullah; Haziri, Artan; Krasniqi, Besnik A.; Harris, Linda UkimerajBACKGROUND: This study examines the effect of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial intentions and individual motivations and the mediation of individual motivations in the relationship between entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intentions. METHODS: We tested 374 questionnaire samples using quantitative research methods. We used PLS-SEM and mediation analyses to analyze the data. RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS: First, the findings show that entrepreneurship education positively affects individual motivations of entrepreneurial intentions, personal attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control, and need for achievement. Second, subjective norms and the need for achievement did not impact entrepreneurial intentions compared to personal attitudes and perceived behavior. Finally, we found that while personal attitudes and perceived behavioral control mediated the relationship between entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intentions, subjective norms and the need for achievement had no effect. The study contributes to the literature and provides policy and managerial implications for macro and micro factors affecting entrepreneurial intentions in transition economies.Öğe Institutions and macroeconomic indicators: entrepreneurial activities across the world(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2024) Kara, Oguz; Altinay, Levent; Bagis, Mehmet; Kurutkan, Mehmet Nurullah; Vatankhah, SanazPurposeEntrepreneurial activity is a phenomenon that increases the economic growth of countries and improves their social welfare. The economic development levels of countries have significant effects on these entrepreneurial activities. This research examines which institutional and macroeconomic variables explain early-stage entrepreneurship activities in developed and developing economies.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted panel data analysis on the data from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) and International Monetary Fund (IMF) surveys covering the years 2009-2018.FindingsFirst, the authors' results reveal that cognitive, normative and regulatory institutions and macroeconomic factors affect early-stage entrepreneurial activity in developed and developing countries differently. Second, the authors' findings indicate that cognitive, normative and regulatory institutions affect early-stage entrepreneurship more positively in developed than developing countries. Finally, the authors' results report that macroeconomic factors are more effective in early-stage entrepreneurial activity in developing countries than in developed countries.Originality/valueThis study provides a better understanding of the components that help explain the differences in entrepreneurship between developed and developing countries regarding institutions and macroeconomic factors. In this way, it contributes to developing entrepreneurship literature with the theoretical achievements of combining institutional theory and macroeconomic indicators with entrepreneurship literature.Öğe Topics, trends and theories in family business research: 1996-2020(Springer, 2023) Bagis, Mehmet; Kryeziu, Liridon; Kurutkan, Mehmet Nurullah; Krasniqi, Besnik A.; Yazici, Omer; Memili, EsraThe existing body of literature on family business studies has expanded considerably. However, despite numerous literature reviews in past research, certain aspects, such as the evolving conceptual patterns in the field and the theories that guide it, remain unexplored. This article aims to uncover the conceptual patterns and theoretical foundations shaping the field, highlighting influential sources, institutions, countries, and authors within the realm of family businesses. The research utilizes bibliometric analyses and qualitative content analysis. Our findings determined that family business research produced its first theoretical studies between 1996 and 2004 (the first period), focusing on management, altruism, and agency issues during this period. During this period, agency theory dominated the field. In the period 2005-2013 (second period), we identified the following as emerging concepts in the field: diversification, entrepreneurship, family capital, family values, family involvement, relationship conflict, stewardship, succession, commitment, and psychological ownership. The dominant theories during this period were agency theory, resource-based theory, management theory, and institutional theory. In the third period, the prominent topics are the following: dynamic capabilities, stewardship, familiness, family dynamics, non-family employees, top management team, governance, trust, sustainability, corporate social responsibility, family management, family ownership, social capital, internationalization, corporate entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial orientation, family influence, knowledge sharing, board of directors, succession planning, succession process, emotions, gender, family control, and heterogeneity. In this period, in addition to the theories in the previous period, Socio-Emotional Wealth theory, social identity theory, social capital theory, stakeholder theory, and upper echelon theory are dominant in the field. The article concludes with recommendations for future research directions.
