Empreendedorismo, Empreendedorismo Humanizado, Revisão sistemática de literaturaResumo
Objetivo: compreender os fundamentos que embasam o conceito de Empreendedorismo Humanizado (HumEnt) e a evolução dos estudos neste tema. Problema: limitações das abordagens do empreendedorismo tradicional que priorizam o crescimento econômico em detrimento do bem-estar humano, social e ambiental, evidenciam a necessidade de novas perspectivas nesse campo. Método: Empregamos uma Revisão Sistemática da Literatura seguindo as recomendações do Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) e o auxílio do software Rayyan, analisamos 32 documentos das bases Web of Science, Scopus, Emerald e ScienceDirect. Principais resultados: os dados mostraram que o HumEnt não tem fronteiras claramente definidas, mas evidenciam sua evolução e tópicos associados, como educação empreendedora, ecossistema, empreendedorismo social, comunitário e criativo, além de críticas ao modelo. Também foram debatidas questões como religião e digitalização no HumEnt. Contribuições teóricas: apresentamos uma visão integrada e sistematizada sobre o HumEnt, contribuindo para a definição de seus contornos e sua aplicabilidade em diferentes contextos, viabilizando seu reconhecimento e expansão. Propomos também uma agenda para futuras pesquisas, incentivando a continuidade do debate acadêmico e a exploração de novas dimensões do HumEnt. Relevância/Originalidade: o HumEnt é um conceito emergente que oportuniza refletir sobre práticas empreendedoras humanizadas. Contribuições sociais/de gestão: O estudo pode estimular empreendedores a adotarem gestões focadas no capital humano, social e ambiental, incentivando ações governamentais para um empreendedorismo alinhado aos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável. Para o Brasil e demais países do sul global, a prática do HumEnt pode alavancar o capital humano e promover o desenvolvimento econômico e social nesses contextos.
