SUMMARY:PhD defence T. Kutzewski
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: Between Opportunity and
Uncertainty
The Flexible Power of the Portfolio Entre
preneur
Tobias Kutzewski investigates how portfolio e
ntrepreneurs—who run multiple businesses simultaneously—organize
their activities and make strategic decisions. He followed these entr
epreneurs for over two years to map how they navigate innovation, eff
iciency, and crisis management, with a special focus on their respons
e to the coronavirus crisis.
The research shows that these ent
repreneurs don't operate in a fixed way, but constantly adapt their s
trategy to the context and timing. Their unique flexibility enables t
hem to respond quickly to unexpected events, although responses vary
significantly from person to person. Kutzewski concludes that policym
akers and advisors should better tailor their support to this dynamic
, for example, by offering tools for managing complexity and uncertai
nty.
