Abstract

L'âge est-il un atout lorsque l'on crée? Le senior entrepreneur est certes un entrepreneur comme les autres mais surmonte-t-il mieux que d'autres la nouveauté de l'organisation? La notion « d'handicap à la nouveauté » est utilisée pour comprendre le rôle de l'expérience de la vie organisationnelle dans deux cas de seniors entrepreneurs. Un cadre d'analyse est proposé qui montre comment l'expérience des activités support est un facteur d'adaptation et de légitimité. Il tient compte de l'action de variables contingentes comme la taille ou l'univers concurrentiel. Enfin des propositions adaptées au senior montrent, que mieux que d'autres, l'activation de réseaux, les routines précédentes et la moindre pression du temps permettent aux seniors de surmonter le handicap à la nouveauté.
