The Fabrication of Entrepreneurial Fable

Abstract

Stories about famous entrepreneurs are often used to form our basic views of the field. Yet how accurate are these stories? What are the common themes that run through most? The author employs biographical analysis to posit the constructs of the stories about these fabled entrepreneurs. The difference between the stories entrepreneurs tell about themselves and the stories biographers tell about entrepreneurs is explored.
