Full Description
Construction Entrepreneur Pathways in Indonesia: Trust, Regulation, and System-Building across Consultancy and Contracting examines how construction workers and employees become construction entrepreneurs within Indonesia's project-based construction economy.
Based on a phenomenological doctoral study of seven active construction entrepreneurs, the book uses participant narratives, project experience, observation, and documentary evidence to trace the varied pathways from construction employment into enterprise responsibility. Their stories show how careers are built through projects, how trust and reputation create access to work, how first opportunities test a new professional identity, and how entrepreneurs learn to organise an enterprise under uncertain and fluctuating project conditions. The book also explains a feature of the Indonesian construction sector that is often invisible to international readers: consultancy and construction execution are legally distinct business activities. Individuals may acquire experience across planning, supervision, and execution, but their businesses must operate within defined regulatory boundaries. This creates both opportunities and constraints as entrepreneurs build legitimacy.
This book will interest postgraduate students and researchers focusing on construction management, workforce development, construction entrepreneurship, or vocational education.
