Resumo: | The aim of this study is to understand the profile of potential Brazilian entrepreneurs in comparison to Chileans, Uruguayans, Bolivians and Venezuelans in order to provide information for future policy-making using entrepreneurship as a tool for local economic development. To achieve the goal, the methodology adopted was to perform the nonparametric Mann-Whitney, through statistical analysis software SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Science) in a sample of 884 questionnaires, checking differences between the variables to be studied at a level of significance 5% through the data collected from a questionnaire prepared by the Federal University of Alagoas and Dom Cabral Foundation-MG. Then the results were compared to the socio-economic and / or cultural variables, trying to find some justification that may have influenced the formation of perceptions of the interviewees. The results showed that among 10 studied dimensions, Brazil has a similar perception with Chile in four of them – uncertainty tolerance, internal locus of control, ethics and leadership / persuasion - similar to Venezuela in six cases - the uncertainty tolerance, ethics, ability to perform / planning, network of relationships, industry knowledge / information and leadership / persuasion – with Uruguay in one of five cases - internal locus of control, self-learning, ethics, selfconcept / need for achievement and leadership / persuasion – and with Bolivia in 5 cases - internal locus of control, self-concept / need for achievement, network of relationships and leadership / persuasion. |
