Dear Joseph, 

I also agree with prof Andersson. 

Tough I see a more qualitative approach by which the concept of success is scrutinized, instead of linking it to financial outcomes. Eg. how come does success get translated to economic variables, when studies of entrepreneurs "intent" rather insist that there are all kinds of motifs for what they currently are up to (and that also is recognized in the stories by entrepreneurs frequently told on in media). Hence, somewhere along this process success is squeezed into orthodox understandings of entrepreneurship, when success rather could  disclose unorthodox meanings if applying an entrepreneuring perspective .

Kind regards, 
Karin

Javed 

That is a very good way to put it. Do you know any article or paper that mentions the positive/negative outcome as a way to measure success?

Regards

Pedro
