Abstract

A growing population of young people only become a benefit to the economy when they nurture the necessary skills to create more employment opportunities and it is at this step that entrepreneurship becomes crucial. The purpose of the study was to assess the relationship between creative behaviour and entrepreneurial alertness and further, to predict the impact of creative behaviour on entrepreneurial alertness among emerging adults between the age group of 18- 24 years attending graduate and postgraduate program in India. The study showed that creativity had predicted entrepreneurship alertness and search, and scanning. Since the study confirmed that creative behaviour and entrepreneurial alertness share a significant relationship, this finding can be used to identify the potential for entrepreneurship in school or college going children who indulge in creative behaviour. The implication of the study was discussed further.
