Women?s entrepreneurship research and the understanding of factors
influencing the growth of women-owned business have advanced
significantly over the last decade. Yet, challenges remain. Women
Entrepreneurs and the Global Environment for Growth provides
wide-ranging insights on the challenges that women entrepreneurs
face growing their businesses and how these may be addressed. This
volume is rooted in research and considers growth challenges,
provoking thought and enriching the current literature on gender
and entrepreneurship. Part I highlights how contextual factors, and
especially social and familial settings of entrepreneurs, have a
differential impact on men and women. Part II examines strategies,
constraints and enablers of growth and performance. The authors
aptly demonstrate that a well-focused gender lens is necessary to
better explain the phenomenon of women?s entrepreneurship.
Extending previous studies about women?s entrepreneurship, this
volume is unique in its application of research from the Diana
Project, a path-breaking initiative dating from 1999 to study
female entrepreneurial success. Contributions from an international
cast of authors make this a comprehensive and broadly appealing
reference work.Lending a fresh perspective to the field, this book
will serve not only as a learning tool and teaching implement but
will cultivate further progress in women?s entrepreneurship. As
such, it is ideally suited for students and scholars of
entrepreneurship and women?s studies, policy-makers, economic
development analysts and gender researchers.
