Entrepreneurship starts in the cradle: How does a sense of security in early childhood give rise to entrepreneurs?

Attachment theory is a concept in developmental psychology developed over the years 1969 to 1982 by John Bowlby.

The theory considers babies' need to form a secure relationship with their attachment figures as a basic requirement for survival, like food.
