This study responds to the call for increased attention to entrepreneurs' decision making by analyzing the relationships between entrepreneurs' decision-making styles and organizational performance. More specifically, this study aimed to: (1) describe decision-making style in entrepreneurs, and (2) investigate the relationships between decision-making style and organizational performance. Results from dependent t-tests showed avoidant decisionmaking style is least prevalent among entrepreneurs studied. A series of six hierarchical regression analyses revealed that rational-, intuitive-, and avoidant decision-making styles related to increases in net profit margin. Additionally, hierarchical regression analyses showed rational- and intuitive decision-making styles related to increases in net profit margin after controlling for cognitive ability and personality traits (namely, conscientiousness and openness). In an effort to build the nomological network around decision-making style, several antecedents to decision-making style were tested however, results provided mixed support. Overall findings indicate that decision-making styles and organizational performance are not directly related, with the possible exception of particular decision-making styles and profitability trends. Balancing theoretical and practical implications, results from this study point to antecedents of decision-making styles, and to ways of improving entrepreneurial training. Results also suggest several future research directions, including the need to replicate this study in earlier phases of entrepreneurship. Given the larger goal of supporting entrepreneurial performance, the findings from the current study take us one step closer to understanding how to help entrepreneurs succeed.
