1. Introduction
Is creative personality associated with opportunity recognition and the tendency to start new businesses? Scientific evidence on this question is lacking. While studies show some limited evidence of a statistical association between creativity – or “the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and entertaining ourselves and others” – (Franken, 1994: 396), and both opportunity recognition and the tendency to start businesses (Cliff et al., 2006; Lee et al., 2004; Shane, 2003), this evidence does not necessarily mean that people with creative personalities are more likely to be entrepreneurs. Any observed statistical association between creativity and entrepreneurship may result from situational, contextual and cognitive factors, rather than individual factors related to personality. Moreover, even if studies were to show an association between creative personality and entrepreneurship, we do not know whether most of this association results from environmental factors or from genetic factors. The association could occur primarily because common genetic factors account for both the tendency to have a creative personality and the tendency to be an entrepreneur, or it could occur primarily because situational factors account for the tendency of people to have creative personalities and to be entrepreneurs, or the association could be accounted for by both environmental and genetic factors. This study examines whether people with a creative personality are more likely than others to identify business opportunities and become entrepreneurs, and the extent to which common genetic factors account for the association between a creative personality and the tendency to identify opportunities and become an entrepreneur. Specifically, we explore this question using data from 1898 monozygotic (MZ) and 1344 same-sex dizygotic (DZ) twins from the United Kingdom, who we surveyed in 2011. We find that people with a creative personality are significantly more likely than others to both identify entrepreneurial opportunities and start new businesses. Moreover, genetic factors account for 66% of the correlation between creative personality and opportunity recognition and 82% of the correlation between creative personality and the tendency to start businesses. Our findings have implications for both research and practice. From a research perspective, our results are the first to suggest that people with creative personalities are more likely to recognize entrepreneurial opportunities and to start new businesses. They also indicate that some people have an innate predisposition to both develop creative personalities and to become entrepreneurs. From a practical perspective, our results suggest that employers investigate the use of creative personality scales to identify employees for jobs where recognizing opportunities is important, such as product development, and corporate entrepreneurship. Of course, these results do not indicate that genes determine creative personality and entrepreneurship – the relationships that we find are nothing more than predispositions – but they show the value of considering the role of biology in accounting for entrepreneurial behavior. Thus, our study follows in the spirit of Freese et al. (2003), who emphasized that biology and sociology are not locked in a zero-sum game where any reference to the biology lessens the value of sociology (Freese, 2008; Freese et al., 2003), psychology, economics, or any other social science, in explaining entrepreneurial behavior. Our study is also complementary to other approaches to analyzing the role of creativity in entrepreneurship. Previous studies have shown that both cognitive structures and processes (Gielnik et al., 2012; Ward, 2004), and learning, play a role in both creativity (Scott et al., 2004) and opportunity recognition (Corbett, 2005; DeTienne and Chandler, 2004). Our study does not challenge the importance of either learning or cognitive structures for creativity or opportunity recognition. It merely follows the approach of Kozbelt et al. (2010) who argue that to truly explain creativity one must also delve more deeply into understanding people, particularly their personalities.
