Abstract
This paper aims to identify how entrepreneurs’ active involvement in sports/athletic training
affects and adds to their overall ethical judgement skills within and outside the workplace.This study adopted a qualitative approach and included a combination
of 12 male and female entrepreneurs who were purposively selected based on the study’s requirements. The
primary data was collected through semi-structured one-on-one interviews, and interpretative phenomenological
analysis served as the primary method of data analysis.Findings from this study suggest that entrepreneurs’ active involvement in sports/athletic
training does indeed influence their ethical judgement skills all-round. Arising from a combination of sports
involvement factors, a unique group of underlying elements surfaced that proves valuable accustomed
relationships concerning the significant impact sports/athletic training have on successful entrepreneurs’
ethical judgement skills.
