LITERATURE REVIEW
This research will adopt the non-financial measures e.g. the number
of employees, the number of years in operation, and perceptual
variables of innovativeness
Venture Performance
The qualities, ability, and values of the entrepreneur, to carry out innovative
projects and deal with the uncertainty of starting a venture (Ferrante, 2005).
Resource-based view (RBV) perspective - entrepreneurial talent variables are
significantly associated with performance (Ferrante, 2005; Mayer-Haug et al.,
2013; Zhang et al., 2010).
Constructs of talent include technical skills, knowledge and business experience,
level of education, business planning, founding team size & networking
However, findings on some of the effect of the constructs on specific performance
have been inconclusive (Mayer-Haug et al., 2013; Weber & Schaper, 2004 &
Djukic, 2011).
The authors are proposing that Social Intelligence (SI), the ability to get along
with others and getting people to cooperate, as a new variable / construct to
explain the effect of talent on performance
Social intelligence has been found to be associated with individual success
