There is a driving force from the social entrepreneur to develope a social entrepreurial behavior.

Drawing from prior research on Theories of Planned Behavior and the Entrepreneurial Drive, and several interviews and case studies(1), we build a Social Entrepreneurial Drive Model (DES).

DES, aims to discover the personal attributes in terms of values, emotions, attitudes,⋯ that influence on the perceived desirability and the perceived viability of the social entrepreneur to act social entrepreneurially.
