Abstract

Within the domains of entrepreneurship and leadership there has been a focus on integrating certain aspects of both to achieve entrepreneurial leadership. Our knowledge of entrepreneurial leadership is still evolving. However, this knowledge remains more limited in relation to the impact of entrepreneurial leadership on the emergence of entrepreneurial ventures. In this chapter the contributions of entrepreneurship and leadership to entrepreneurial leadership is examined. Herein, a conceptual model is proposed as a useful focal point to extend the integration of entrepreneurial leadership and synthesize the impact that entrepreneurial leadership has on the emergence of entrepreneurial ventures.
