I find the percentages within a recent article published in The Economist intriguing, particularly when a Senior Project Manager at the Bertelsmann Foundation remarked, "Germans are averse to self-employment." https://www.economist.com/business/2020/11/19/how-germanys-guest-workers-become-guest-entrepreneurs
Who could have imagined that Germans now prefer working for others, taking orders, rather than taking the helm as the leaders of their own businesses ! Could it be that they prefer to lean towards taking orders working in businesses owned by foreigners rather than risking the sociological and psychological consequences of dealing with a failed business ?
Whether by coincidence or not, in the inaugural chapter of a recently published book, I delved into the intriguing realm of how various countries exhibit distinct levels of tolerance for the stigma attached to the failure of start-ups. This, in turn, exerts a profound influence on the intricate dynamics that shape the inception of startups. https://www.elsevier.com/books/start-up-creation/pacheco-torgal/978-0-12-819946-6
