Abstract
Individuals in Generation Z are known as future leaders who play an important role in the world society. The relationship between the entrepreneurial tendencies and narcissistic traits of this generation can provide important clues about the future role of young people and the development of entrepreneurial culture in society. Entrepreneurship is critical for innovation and economic growth. The impact of narcissistic traits in Generation Z on entrepreneurial tendency and success is important for economic growth and the future of business. A good and accurate understanding of this relationship allows for the development of more effective entrepreneurship support and education programs for young people. Customized training and mentoring programs for Generation Z individuals with narcissistic traits can better unlock their potential entrepreneurial talents. More efficiency can be achieved by using this potential in the right field. The impact of narcissistic traits on the risks and opportunities encountered in entrepreneurship may affect the success momentum of entrepreneurs and contribute to a faster and more efficient path. Individuals with normal narcissistic personality traits are not considered to be more successful in entrepreneurial activities.
