Many scholars have focused on the individual level behavior analysis for the entrepreneurs and others as Wiklund (2005) focused on the firm level in behavior in explaining entrepreneurial performance on the basis that the behavior gives a meaning to entrepreneurial process. Other scholars remain in the area of studying entrepreneurship without entrepreneurs and it remains worthwhile for a certain period at the individual level (e.g. using a trait-based approach). Although, we believe that the dispositional characteristics are to be related to the firm level behavior as well as affect the firm performance outcomes for a complete understanding of the entrepreneurial process. To date, few studies have examined how dispositional traits, firm-level behaviors, and firm-level outcomes are related (Poon et al., 2006).
