Volunteering nonprofit entrepreneurial services

Article Abstract:

Entrepreneurs are primarily motivated by their desire to consume the public good in their decision to supply nonprofit enterpreneurial services toward organizing public good provision. Their decision can also be attributed to a wide range of other motivations, such as seeking to impose one's views, career concerns and managerial perks. Attitudes towards risk and uncertainty are also central variables in the self-selection of nonprofit businessmen.
