Education / Pedagogy
Suplementario a esto, se pueden identificar contextos que fomentan actitudes emprendedoras en los estudiantes. Muchos adultos jóvenes, particularmente, entre las edades 25 y 34, están interesados en la creación de negocios y son más propensos de entablar actividades emprendedoras (Minniti, Allen & Langowitz., 2005), son edades sensitivas donde se puede capitalizar en la actitud, utilizando el rango de intereses como inercia para acelerar la integración de dichos valores al individuo.

where we can take advantage of this attitude
The "royal" we saves any syntactic gmnastics. The options" "where one can take advantage of" or "where advantage can be taken of..." are less appealing to me. If the subject is "young adults", then "where THEY can take advantage of" would also work IMHO.
And I prefer "take advantage of" to "exploit", which I always feel has a negative overtone.

(this) attitude can be harnessed (by...)
My own reading;
This is a sensitive period where attitude can be harnessed by using...
(Did we escape the royal we and the gymnastics?)
;)
