Dear colleagues,
A persistent assumption in management and entrepreneurship education is that the "entrepreneurial mindset" can be developed through exposure to content, cases, and experiential activities.
What remains less examined is whether this assumption fully captures what is happening at the level of cognitive framing and interpretation.
An alternative perspective is beginning to emerge: what is often described as "mindset" may be better understood as a set of underlying cognitive processes shaping how individuals interpret, frame, and act under uncertainty.
From this standpoint, the focus shifts from developing mindset as something to be expressed, to shaping the conditions under which cognitive processes are formed.
This raises a further question:
At what stage, and under what conditions, do our interventions begin to influence how cognitive representations themselves are formed?
