Julien Cusin, « The Role of the Tutor in the Resilience of the Post-Bankruptcy Entrepreneur: The Case of the 60.000 Rebonds Association », Revue de l’Entrepreneuriat / Review of Entrepreneurship, ID : 10670/1.bx8aqf
Entrepreneurs’ post-failure recovery has previously been approached from the perspective of individual resilience. This recovery dynamic involves interactions between the entrepreneurs and their environment. Our paper studies the role of the tutor as an active external support in the entrepreneur’s resilience process. We consider the case of an association that supports entrepreneurs who have filed for bankruptcy and show how the tutor regulates the entrepreneur’s post-failure resilience process, involving other stakeholders to form a resilience system. We also show how the tutor must manage its image within this system in the interests of the recovering entrepreneurs.
