Entrepreneurs can exhibit the entrepreneurial burnout syndrome, which retards entrepreneur and firm performance.

Job autonomy buffered the negative effect of emotional demands on entrepreneurial burnout. However, job satisfaction did not buffer the negative effect of emotional demands on entrepreneurial burnout. Implications are discussed.
