Abstract
Recent research in entrepreneurship has highlighted the need for better understanding the well-being of founders. Feeling energy in connection with their venture is a core aspect of what it means for founders to be psychologically well. While founders might initially feel a high level of energy for their venture, over time, some founders develop entrepreneurial fatigue - a persistent and extreme exhaustion when engaging in entrepreneurial activities for the venture. Drawing on rich, longitudinal data from founders of early-stage ventures, we develop a dynamic model of entrepreneurial fatigue. Our study has implications for research on entrepreneurial well-being, adversity, and founder exits.
