Role of passion in entrepreneurial responses to crises on social media platforms

Entrepreneurial passion feeds energy, tenacity, self-confidence and momentum, creating added value for a given economy.Design/methodology/approachA qualitative approach was used to conduct semi-structured interviews. To reach the research objectives, the author examined a sample of 22 female entrepreneurs and 19 male entrepreneurs in a comparative design.FindingsThe results obtained through a qualitative study prove that entrepreneurial passion is a driver of self-confidence for entrepreneurs. Moreover, the nature of entrepreneurial passion differs across gender in times of crises. Indeed, female entrepreneurs try to take their lives into their own hands by creating their own destinies. They have seized opportunities arising from purely technological progress to create their own businesses on social networks and solve the unemployment problem. Meanwhile, male entrepreneurs pursue opportunities based on market supply and demand to increase their market share and face a crisis.Practical implicationsThese findings offer novel insights into research on social media entrepreneurs. This study could help new entrepreneurs highlight their abilities, particularly those that are most salient and central.Originality/valueThis study adds a new dimension to the literature on the role and nature of entrepreneurial passion in times of crises.
