Abstract

Personality traits, skills, competencies, and capabilities —also generally known as abilities—are terms widely used within the business domain in both the managerial and entrepreneurial contexts. Although the differences between entrepreneurial and managerial roles have been widely discussed among scholars, the literature still fails to identify the abilities that distinguish these roles. Moreover, new capabilities common to both fields have also recently emerged, related to both entrepreneurial and managerial roles, that are strictly connected to the rapid change and uncertain dynamics of the global economy. This research contributes to knowledge by disclosing this new group of capabilities, also known as dynamic capabilities. A bibliometric analysis has been conducted to examine the evolutionary intricacies of both entrepreneurial and managerial roles while shedding light on the specific skills creating these dynamic capabilities.
