description Objective: This theoretical essay examines the processes by which crises are experienced and managed by entrepreneurs, with a particular focus on the role of effectuation. Problem: The nature, intensity, and duration of crises vary, exerting pressure on organizations and entrepreneurs. In order to respond effectively, it is necessary to develop quick, ingenious solutions that are adapted to the context of uncertainty and lack of resources. However, there is a lack of clarity regarding the occurrence of crises for entrepreneurs and the strategies they employ to cope with them. Originality: The study, based on a characterization of crises and their diversity, delves more profoundly into the ways in which entrepreneurs cope with crises and the extent to which effectuation is (or fails to be) useful in such coping. It illuminates the micro and macro levels of crises and the nuances in responses to them. Social/management contributions: In addition to presenting new research conclusions, the essay proposes a research agenda for prospective publications that seek to address humanity's significant challenges.

Objetivo: Este ensayo teórico explica cómo se producen las crisis y cómo las afrontan los empresarios, incluso mediante el uso de effectuation. Problema: Las crisis varían en naturaleza, intensidad y duración y ejercen presión sobre las organizaciones y los empresarios. Requieren respuestas rápidas, ingeniosas y adaptadas al contexto de inseguridad y falta de recursos. Sin embargo, falta clarificar cómo se producen para los empresarios y cómo las afrontan. Originalidad: Partiendo de una caracterización de las crisis y de su diversidad, el estudio profundiza en cómo los empresarios afrontan las crisis y cómo effectuation es (o no puede ser) útil en este proceso, destacando los niveles micro y macro de las crisis y las variaciones en las respuestas a las mismas. Contribuciones sociales y de gestión: además de nuevos resultados de investigación, el ensayo ofrece una agenda para futuras publicaciones prometedoras en busca de soluciones a los grandes retos de la humanidad. Objetivo: Este ensaio teórico explica como as crises ocorrem e são enfrentadas por empreendedores, inclusive com o uso da efetuação (effectuation). Problema: As crises são variadas em natureza, intensidade e duração, exercem pressão sobre as organizações e os empreendedores. Exigem respostas rápidas, engenhosas e adaptadas ao contexto de incertezas e de falta de recursos. Contudo, falta o esclarecimento de como ocorrem para os empreendedores e como estes enfrentam-nas. Originalidade: A partir de uma caracterização das crises e de sua diversidade, o estudo aprofunda a explicação do enfrentamento das crises no empreendedorismo e de como a efetuação é (ou não consegue ser) útil em tal enfrentamento, destacando-se os níveis micro e macro das crises e variações de respostas a elas. Contribuições sociais/para gestão: Além de novos resultados de pesquisa, o ensaio oferece uma agenda para futuras publicações promissoras em busca de soluções para grandes desafios da humanidade.
