| Popis: | This qualitative research uses case studies of two migrant entrepreneurs – Karan Bilimoria and Levi Roots – to explore the use of storytelling as a tool for establishing and sustaining a business. It proposes a conceptual framework which shows how storytelling is used to gain legitimacy, credibility and support. It finds that the two men use consistent themes and patterns in their stories, which are similar to each other and to conventional metanarratives around entrepreneurship, and require narrative plausibility more than objective truth. It identifies themes which both individuals repeatedly use in their business storytelling to demonstrate attributes of entrepreneurship. |
