ABSTRACT

The Social Rehabilitation Organization for People with Visual Sensory Disabilities (BRSPDSN) is a rehabilitation and social protection center for people with disabilities—in this case, people who are blind. In this institution there are some clients who want to become entrepreneurs, but it is very difficult for them to compete, because the clients do not have the quality of entrepreneurship to build a business and motivation for entrepreneurship. The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of entrepreneurial characteristics on client entrepreneurial motivation at this institution. This study uses causality method by multiple linear regressions. Our respondents are 100 clients with a minimum age of 17 years and above. The results are that only self-esteem and result orientation influences entrepreneurship motivation partially, while simultaneously all independent variables influence entrepreneurship motivation. This research suggests improving a client’s self-esteem through increasing meeting intensity in order to check business plan results previously and future visions.
