The drive process model of entrepreneurship: A grounded theory of nurses’ perception of entrepreneurship in nursing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Entrepreneurship is a concept involving developing and managing a business venture in order to gain profit by taking several risks in the cooperate world. Nurses enjoy the privilege as the singular group of professionals with the most far-reaching presence at all levels of the health care system. However, the nurse is yet to exploit the opportunity created by the lack in the health system. Nurses need to get the necessary drive to exploit the entrepreneurship opportunities available to them. The purpose of this study is to explore the perception of entrepreneurship among nurses and develop a mid-range theory that explains the meaning and practices of entrepreneurship among nurses. The constructivist grounded theory design was used. In-depth Interview was conducted on 20 purposively selected participants using the zig-zag method of data collection until data saturation. Open to axial coding paradigm was used for thematic analysis by the researchers and co-coders. Finding was returned to participants and literature for verification. Findings were captured in six themes (a). Nursing entrepreneurship is creating innovation in nursing driven by education and expertise, passion for creativity and positive creative climate (b) : Nursing entrepreneurship is philanthropy in nursing through innovation creation motivated by passion for caring, need for recognition and the desire to leave a legacy, (c) Nursing entrepreneurship is innovation creation in nursing driven by professionalizing in Nursing motivated by specialized training and retraining, practicing with autonomy, research and ethical code, (d) Nursing entrepreneurship is creating innovation in nursing for social gratification driven by the need for leadership, financial independence, status enhancement and time flexibility, (e) Nursing entrepreneurship is innovation creation to fulfill the need for business savvy driven by opportunity identification, health risk management and health marketing, (f) Nursing entrepreneurship is innovation creation in nursing for socio economic transformation driven by the desire for job creation and wealth generation. Drive for innovation creation emerged as the core category and based on the relationship with other themes, the drive process model of entrepreneurship in nursing is proposed. Nursing entrepreneurship is perceived as innovation creation in nursing driven by the need for professionalism, philanthropy, social gratification, business savvy, and economic transformation, for optimal positive impact and better client outcomes. Utilizing this model will lead to positive transformations in health care practice, and engineer a positive future for the nursing profession, and the health care system globally especially in sub-Saharan Africa where the health care indices is alarming.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
