From the supplier: Some 215 presidents of small-sized companies were studied to determine the relationship between each of the president's proactivity and his entrepreneurial bent. Classifying entrepreneurial behavior as a function of starting as against not starting the business, the quantity of startups and the kinds of ownership, proactivity was concluded to be significantly related to the firm's entrepreneurial posture, as well as to change in its sales. However, no relationship between proactivity and change in profits or the delegation-of-authority style was identified.
