Résumé
Bien que l’échec entrepreneurial soit perçu négativement dans la société, plusieurs chercheurs estiment qu’il offre une réelle opportunité d’apprentissage. Cependant, il est parfois difficile d’apprendre à partir d’un échec compte tenu des différents coûts financiers, psychologiques et sociaux qu’il occasionne. Au travers d’un modèle conceptuel, nous proposons un angle d’approche plus positif de l’échec entrepreneurial. Nous suggérons qu’un niveau de capital psychologique élevé joue un rôle modérateur dans la relation entre les conséquences négatives de l’échec et l’apprentissage à partir de l’échec. Cet apprentissage et ce capital psychologique élevé aideraient l’entrepreneur ayant échoué à poursuivre sa carrière entrepreneuriale.
Mots-clés :

Abstract
Although entrepreneurial failure is perceived negatively by society, many researchers believe that it offers a real opportunity to learn. However, it is sometimes difficult to learn from failure due to the various financial, psychological and social costs. Through our conceptual model, we offer a more positive approach of entrepreneurial failure. We suggest that a high level of psychological capital plays a moderating role in the relationship between the negative consequences of failure and learning from failure. Then this learning and high psychological capital would help entrepreneurs who have failed to pursue their entrepreneurial career.
Keywords:
- business failure,
- learning from failure,
- psychological capital
Resumen
Aunque el fracaso empresarial se percibe negativamente en la sociedad, muchos investigadores creen que ofrece una verdadera oportunidad de aprendizaje. Sin embargo, a veces es difícil aprender de un fracaso dado los costos financieros, psicológicos y sociales. A través de un modelo conceptual, ofrecemos un ángulo de enfoque más positivo del fracaso empresarial. Sugerimos que un alto nivel de capital psicológico desempeña un papel moderador en la relación entre las consecuencias negativas del fracaso y el aprendizaje que puede resultar del mismo. Este aprendizaje y un alto capital psicológico ayudarían a alguien emprendedor que no pudo dedicarse a la carrera empresarial.
