    Emotional Competencies and Entrepreneurial Intention: An Extension of the Theory of Planned Behavior
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2021-08-05) Verdesoto Velástegui, Oswaldo Santiago; Chión Chacón, Sergio Julio
    This study analyzed the relationship between emotional competencies and entrepreneurial intention in final-year undergraduate students of public higher education institutions in Ecuador, supported by an extended model of Ajzen's Theory of planned behavior (1991). The results were derived from a questionnaire applied to students in the last semester of degrees involving academic business training. To analyze the results, structural equation modeling (SEM) was used. The findings show that emotional competencies are significant factors in the configuration of entrepreneurial intentions and have a direct and positive relationship with their cognitive precursors: entrepreneurial attitude and self-efficacy. It is suggested that students with a higher degree of emotional competencies cope better with the cognitive bias that can make it difficult to recognize business opportunities. The main contribution of this study was to generalize the results that have been obtained in the use of emotional competencies to promote the intentionality of entrepreneurship in the contexts of emerging economies.

    Influence of Dispositional Mindfulness on Emotional Intelligence as Ability
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2020-12-04) Pimentel Bernal, Paul Marcelo; Guevara Sánchez, Daniel Eduardo
    The purpose of this quantitative, correlational, descriptive, and cross-sectional research that uses structural equations is to contribute to and make progress in the understanding of mindfulness and emotional intelligence as ability, to explain the influence of mindfulness on emotional intelligence, to explain the direction between the constructs, to assess the positive relationship between emotional intelligence and its equivalence with trait emotional intelligence. Based on the ability model of emotional intelligence (Caruso, Mayer & Salovey, 2002), the trait model of emotional intelligence (Schutte et al., 1998, 2009), the comprehensive dimensional model of emotional intelligence (Shutte & Malouff, 2013), the dispositional mindfulness model (Shapiro, Carlson & Astin, 2006), and the measurement models of emotional intelligence as one-dimensional character trait (Schutte et al., 1998). The target population from which the sample will be drawn will be selected from private postgraduate schools in Peru, using statistical inferences and structural equation analysis. The results will fill gaps in the literature for empirically evaluating the influence effect of mindfulness on ability emotional intelligence, the link between emotional intelligence and other variables will be achieved in the face of the need to increase research and provide better estimates of its dimensions and its relationships (Quaglia et al., 2016). In light of the results, it is suggested that dispositional mindfulness has a positive and significant relationship with emotional intelligence as a skill and as a trait, and it is corroborated that it can be a platform for its development in organizations.

    Spiritual intelligence and mindfulness as sources of transformational leadership
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2017-11-16) D’Brot Calderón, Jorge Edmundo; Marquina Feldman, Percy Samoel
    The transfer rate of transformational leadership training is considered marginal; it is estimated that less than 30% of leaders who participate in the training change their behavior once back in the workplace. Most quantitative investigations have focused on predictors of transformational leadership, providing insufficient information about possible internal driving forces that influence leaders to behave in a transformational manner; furthermore, some correlations of those predictors with specific dimensions of transformational leadership have not been thoroughly explained. In the present quantitative, survey-based, cross-sectional research, we tested the effects of spiritual intelligence and mindfulness on transformational leadership behavior patterns among a sample of 542 leaders in Peru, with the results suggesting that mindfulness partially mediates the effects of spiritual intelligence on transformational leadership. Based on these findings, we propose that introducing spiritual intelligence and mindfulness training as part of the traditional curricula for transformational leadership training will improve the transfer of knowledge to leaders

    Relación de la inteligencia emocional con la intención de emprendimiento y la autoeficacia emprendedora
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2017-03-02) Manosalvas Vaca, Luis Oswaldo; Avolio Alecchi, Beatrice Elcira
    En los últimos años los estudios sobre el comportamiento emprendedor han indicado que las decisiones empresariales se basan en criterios racionales y no racionales; por lo tanto, el intentar desarrollar un emprendimiento puede estar determinado por las diferencias psicológicas individuales. La inteligencia emocional es una de las variables que se ha estudiado sobre el campo de la intención de emprendimiento con resultados que han evidenciado mejoras sobre la creatividad, el reconocimiento de oportunidades, efectividad en la toma de decisiones empresariales. De la misma manera, se ha determinado a la variable autoeficacia emprendedora como un constructo con el potencial de predecir el rendimiento y mejorar la tasa de actividad emprendedora, evalúa el entorno empresarial lleno de oportunidades, es considerada la variable más influyente en el estudio de la intención de emprendimiento. La presente investigación analiza el efecto de la inteligencia emocional sobre la intención de emprendimiento utilizando la autoeficacia emprendedora como variable mediadora, el estudio se desarrolló en estudiantes universitarios de los últimos niveles de carreras empresariales, se utilizaron técnicas estadísticas multivariantes como el análisis factorial confirmatorio y el diseño de ecuaciones estructurales. Los resultados indicaron que la inteligencia emocional tiene relación directa con la intención de emprendimiento; sin embargo, esta relación también está influenciada por la autoeficacia emprendedora para crear una relación con la variable de intencionalidad. Este resultado señala que la creencia de tener las capacidades y las habilidades en la propia eficacia emprendedora se relaciona de manera significativa con el comportamiento intencional, siendo un vínculo necesario entre la inteligencia emocional y la intención de emprendimiento
