THE EMPRETEC MODEL PERSONAL
ENTREPRENEURIAL COMPETENCIES
Research by McClelland and McBer, funded by
USAID, has identified 14 personal entrepreneurial
competencies (PECs) which appear to characterize
the behaviour of successful entrepreneurs. The
study, conducted in India, Ecuador and Malawi,
also found that these PECs transcended culture,
country and continent. These competencies can be
grouped into 3 main clusters and the EMPRETEC
model has merged some of these competencies to
derive 10 PECs.
