Are Entrepreneurs' Brains Wired Differently?

Recently, academic researchers have begun to take this notion seriously. A research team of neuroscientists and business-school scholars from Italy and Switzerland recently used an fMRI to capture images of the brains of entrepreneurs and managers who undertook a task that involved searching for alternative approaches to solving a problem – something academics call “exploration.” The researchers found that when the entrepreneurs sought out novel courses of action, they were more likely than the managers to use the right side of the prefrontal cortex, which is associated with creativity.
