Dear Jerry,
You may also want to consider the capabilities literature as a concept that is slightly different from the skills concept. See for example the article by Helfat and Peteraf (2003) on organizational capability development, starting from the organization of individuals around a common goal. At the more micro-level, Eggers ad Kaplan (2013) provide a neat review on the interaction of capabilities with managerial cognition whereas Teece (2012) writes on the intersection of routines and entrepreneurial action.
Teece, D. J. (2012), Dynamic Capabilities: Routines versus Entrepreneurial Action. Journal of Management Studies, 49: 1395–1401. doi: 10.1111/j.1467-6486.2012.01080.x

Dear Jerry:
Michael Frese and his colleagues worked for many years in the field of entrepreneurial training. You my find the review from Frese and Gielnik on the Psychology of Entrepreneurship in the Annual Review of Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior helpful.
