This study analyses the relationship between tolerance to ambiguity, environmental perception, authentic leadership and performance in SMEs. In order to test the above, information is collected from 285 entrepreneurs and through a combination, the mediation analysis is applied with the moderation of the direct effect of tolerance to ambiguity on performance through the environmental perception, as well as an effect on the relationship between the mentioned variables is determined directly, which is a function of authentic leadership. The authors found that tolerance to ambiguity and authentic leadership were positive predictors of environmental perception, which in turn positively impacted performance in SMEs. Additionally, the study revealed that the relationship between tolerance to ambiguity and performance was mediated by environmental perception. Overall, the study provides valuable insights into how the interplay of various factors can impact SME performance outcomes and suggests that enhancing tolerance to ambiguity and authentic leadership can lead to improved environmental perception and, ultimately, better performance for such businesses.

Niniejsze badanie analizuje związek między tolerancją na niejednoznaczność, postrzeganiem środowiska, autentycznym przywództwem i wydajności w MŚP. Aby przetestować powyższe, zebrano informacje od 285 przedsiębiorców i poprzez połączenie zastosowano analizę mediacji z moderacją bezpośredniego wpływu tolerancji na niejednoznaczność na wyniki poprzez postrzeganie środowiska, a także wpływ na związek między wymienionymi zmiennymi jest określany bezpośrednio, co jest funkcją autentycznego przywództwa. Autorzy stwierdzili, że tolerancja na niejednoznaczność i autentyczne przywództwo były pozytywnymi predyktorami postrzegania środowiska, co z kolei pozytywnie wpłynęło na wyniki MŚP. Ponadto badanie wykazało, że związek między tolerancją na niejednoznaczność a wynikami był pośredniczony przez postrzeganie środowiska. Ogólnie rzecz biorąc, badanie dostarcza cennych informacji na temat tego, w jaki sposób wzajemne oddziaływanie różnych czynników może wpływać na wyniki MŚP i sugeruje, że zwiększenie tolerancji na niejednoznaczność i autentyczne przywództwo może prowadzić do lepszego postrzegania środowiska, a ostatecznie do lepszych wyników takich firm.

Labor absenteeism is a factor that affects the good performance of organizations in any part of the world, from the instability that is generated in the functioning of the system. This is evident in the effects on quality, productivity, reaction time, among other aspects. The direct causes by which it occurs are generally known and with greater reinforcement the diseases are located, without distinguishing possible classifications. However, behind these or other causes can be found other possible factors of incidence, such as age or sex. This research seeks to explore, through the application of neural networks, the possible relationship between different variables and their incidence in the levels of absenteeism. To this end, a neural networks model is constructed from the use of a population of more than 12,000 employees, representative of various classification categories. The study allowed the characterization of the influence of the different variables studied, supported in addition to the performance of an ANOVA analysis that allowed to corroborate and clarify the results of the neural network analysis.

The objective of this research is to investigate the perception of owner – managers and their employees regarding entrepreneurial leadership. To develop the research, two questions are raised related to the similarities or diﬀerences of the perceptions of both groups with what is established in the literature and between the self – evaluation of the owner – managers and their employees on whether the former perform as an entrepreneurial leader. As a research method, both groups are asked to perform, ﬁrst individual evaluations and then to match certain behaviours and the levels at which they should appear at certain levels of entrepreneurial leadership capacity. The data gathered during the investigation were processed using the Categorical Principal Components Analysis and revealed the similarities and diﬀerences between the perceptions of the owner-managers and their employees on entrepreneurial leadership. In spite of not ﬁnding signiﬁcant diﬀerences between what is established in the literature and among the perceptions of the groups under study, interesting nuances stand out that, if not identiﬁed and understood, could have a negative eﬀect on the performance of SMEs. The results of the research demonstrated the importance of the approach of behaviour and perception in the study of entrepreneurial leadership.
