Abstract
The entrepreneurial capability is not only related to the creation of new companies but to the acknowledgement/recognition of the opportunities to do something new (products, services, pro-duction processes, utilization of existing technologies) from someone who, while working in an organization, individuates and organizes the economic and human resources in order to reach the goals of the organization itself. Our research intends to analyze the opinion that the basic population has regarding/on some constructs referred to the entrepreneurial capability. The internal control locus, the auto efficiency, the proactivity, the employability and the engagement are characteristics of the entrepreneurial conduct. The investigation instrument is a questionnaire of self-evaluation (COEM J. C. Sanchez, 2006) with 14 sections that investigate on specific sectors. The basic popu-lation is formed by/consists of 100 female workers on diverse feminine companies (Rome-Italy) between 29 and 62 years old. The results of the research show subjects who are gifted with impor-tant entrepreneurial conduct prediction constructs. The last stage of the research has consisted in the construction of a basic control population. Synthetically we can say that, based on the results, there are no significant differences between both groups.
Keywords: entrepreneurial capability, internal control locus, the auto efficiency, the proactivity, the employability and the engagement.
