Description
Curiosity drives learning, and in business training it may help build an entrepreneurial mindset. Lizbeth Puerta-Sierra and Rogelio Puente-Díaz studied what feeds that curiosity in 2024, following learners through three waves of questionnaires. They focused on two basic needs: feeling free to choose, and feeling able to do the work.
Feeling competent fed curiosity at the first two waves, and feeling autonomous supported that sense of competence. Curiosity, in turn, predicted later satisfaction with knowledge tasks. The authors read the chain as support for a simple idea: when training meets the needs for freedom and competence, learners grow curious and gain more from the work. They discuss what this means for programs that teach entrepreneurship.
