Educational innovation with social development in a postgraduate program in Guerrero: practices for change through entrepreneurship
Abstract
The objective of this study is to analyze the perceptions of graduate students at the Faculty of Accounting and Administration of the Autonomous University of Guerrero regarding motivation and leadership as key factors for the development of social impact ventures. The research is justified within the context of socioeconomic inequality that characterizes the state of Guerrero, where higher education, particularly graduate programs registered with the National Graduate System, can play a strategic role in promoting regional development. The theoretical framework integrates both classical and contemporary approaches. Based on this foundation, the central hypothesis is that students perceive motivation and leadership as relevant factors for fostering social entrepreneurship. The research is quantitative, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design. A structured questionnaire was administered, exploring five variables: motivation, knowledge, leadership, satisfaction, and collaboration. Exploratory factor analysis was used for data analysis. The results showed that leadership, satisfaction, and collaboration exhibit high and positive correlations with each other, constituting a strong factor. In contrast, motivation showed low and negative correlations with these variables, while knowledge was primarily associated with the first factor. It is concluded that these postgraduate programs provide a favorable environment for promoting social entrepreneurship, especially among students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
