When a woman decides to become an 'entrepreneur,' she starts her
business with a sense of excitement, freedom, wealth, happiness,
prestige; however, these feelings can soon turn to fears over debt,
difficulties, unpaid invoices, stress, and uncertainty. Being an
entrepreneur means taking risks, making decisions, adapting
management styles in line with developmental needs, clashing with
rivals, being more agile than competitors, negotiating risky
scenarios, following business trends, capturing new opportunities
before, and being better than the competition. If a woman wants to
be successful as an entrepreneur, she needs to have a business
education, undergo continued professional development, and have
patience and emotional intelligence. Supporting women in their
entrepreneurial activities has been shown to positively affect the
economy, which is why governments pay special attention to opening
new funding opportunities and training programs for women who want
to start or develop a business. Female entrepreneurship has
individual characteristics because of those aspects of the business
which are affected by cultural, technological, legislative, social,
and historical developments. This book discusses the relationship
between female entrepreneurship and the economy, and academic
authors from developing countries such as Brazil, Turkey, Albania,
Kosovo, Portugal, and Malaysia analyze the developments
encompassing women and entrepreneurship in their respective
countries. The authors discuss the regulatory frameworks of each
country to show how these either help or hinder female
entrepreneurship, and consequently, the place of women in the
economy. Women and entrepreneurship is an emerging theme, and this
book is a must-read for researchers from both developing and
developed countries.
