Entrepreneurship and women

[Hewlet]

I want to start a discussion highlighting some points I read online regarding women as compared to men in entrepreneurship and the chance of success.

Men and women do not prepare for the launch of their business in the same way. The number one preparatory activity for women is specific training (43.3% versus 31.8% for men). Men are looking for potential clients (45.8%) and writing a business plan (42.5% versus 34.6% for women).

Market research is carried out by about 1/3 of men and 1/4 of women.

Women entrepreneurs are much less experienced than their male counterparts: 37.5% have less than 3 years of experience versus 25.7% of men.

82.5% of women start businesses alone (compared to 69.8% of men)

Men consider that they are more entrepreneurial than women (84.7% of men against 72% of women)

Men have much more confidence in the future than women (48.2% of women vs. 64.7% of men)

Men are clearly more confident in the success of their company than women: 72.4% versus 65.3

There are far more unemployed women than men among entrepreneurs: 25.9% versus 16.9

Women are 3 times less likely than men to have already tried the adventure of creating a business: only 5.3% of women had already created a business against 18.4% of men

As a result of the difficult economic times, do you consider that there will be more women entrepreneurs competing with men in this field which it so looks like they currently dominate?

I think that the core reason why you find more men than women in most sector of the workforce is the mentality that most mem have that they are the braid winner of the home and that's what lead them to think on creative ways of making money. For the women on the other hand, as long as their husbands doing well, they can be relaxed or might just look for any small business just to keep themselves busy with.

I know that other women are doing extremely well in terms of career and in the entrepreneurial sector and this has a lot to do with there kind of environment they find themselves. There are societies and families where it is almost like a taboo for a woman to be seen working as hard as a man, some men might not even allow their wives to work in some society while in other society, they don't see anything wrong in woman working and its just a normal situation and this encourages more women to try out several entrepreneurial adventures and some of them are doing very well in those actors.

It depends on the mentality of the person whether it is a man or woman. I am also in favour of work but looking to society I often advise to just remain in the house but it also depends on the mentality what if change my mind and let go of her out so what about the other, Do they think the same like me? some person wants their Women to just relax at home and chill. But yeah you are write that there are many women and I know some women that run a business and also take care of their home and children very equally.  The work of women has also played an important role in the economy of a country, it increases job opportunities and provides a source of income to words that states those countries that are developed give the right to women to work freely and now they are on the top.

   Women are recently doing so well in the entrepreneurial space. The most used notion is being an independent woman. Yes it's good to be an independent woman, you don't have to be a liability to your husband or spouse or partner. You have to be an asset, the relationship should be mutual in all areas. That should even be the least firm of support a woman should be able to render in raising the home. Yes some men may like their women being housewives but it doesn't stop you from being an independent housewife.
   Woman are said to be able to assimilate skills way faster than men that's why they're quick in grasping everything they decide to get knowledge of. The burden doesn't necessarily have to be on the man. African mentality aside, if the women do their best in establishing works and making waves in the labour market, who knows, it may be the dawn of economic breakthrough for us. Women tend to have more opportunities than men and sometimes the journey through entrepreneur is somewhat easy for them. They have the guide they need, they have dedication in them already, they'd really make good wage if their independence in living is taken serious.

women and men actually have the same rights, but here most women set up businesses because their initial goal is to help their husbands with finances. Success is a plus and good luck for women, but not all women impose their will as entrepreneurs/business people, if their finances are stable or can be said to be well established

You're right, women also like making business, if not for anything but to serve as an additional means to help add to whatever their husbands provide for them, this will also serves as a backup to their main financial source in case of anything happening under a crucial event affecting their husbands business or source of income, women do make a deep thought in everything before they assume the right state of doing them as usual, they tend to create a backup for themselves.

Those women who have financial problems can not come to this field because they do not have that much money to come out from the financial crises and run their home smoothly then they start a business that requires a lot of funds. On the other hand, those women who are financially stable are coming to the business side and some of them want to be independent and not rely on their husband most of them belongs to the feminist community but some of them just came to make themselves busy. The rights are equal but no one gives her his official rights and those who gave them are on the top now. So we need to encourage our women to come to this sector and do something for  her family and for their state which is not only beneficial for her but also for many other families.

There's a gender equality wherein women are also capable of running businesses like what men can do. In fact, Here in our country, Majority of business owners are women and they are beyond successful nowadays with the helps of their husbands/partners. See? they can manage their businesses whether they are men or women. Gender cannot be measured in how a person can handle a business, It's all about capability, determination and willingness to do.

Whether or not a woman is financially stable is also proven by the amount of income her husband earns through his own work and if because of this a woman doesn't want to work, I think the woman will also experience difficulties when her husband is gone. It is true that there is nothing wrong with relying on a husband's income because that is part of the husband's responsibility, but the woman herself must also know how a husband earns money to support his family so that when her husband is gone, she can continue her husband's work in the future so that she will always be far away with difficulties.

I see that many women who are married to company bosses or owners of well-known companies also want to know how their husbands run the company so they can become more successful in their lives. But for women whose husbands only work as regular laborers or daily workers, it is appropriate for women to help their husbands to achieve their target of earning more so that their families can be happier. So it certainly cannot be equated even though in terms of work everyone has the same rights.

Behind becoming an entrepreneur these are not things to be imposed depending on a person's own will. In many societies women are looked down upon so it is better for women to be established. Providing technical and financial facilities for women to become entrepreneurs benefits society more than their male counterparts. When a woman becomes a successful entrepreneur the family benefits in many ways such as the education of sons and daughters is covered nutritious food is ensured medical expenses of the family are covered and the elderly members of the family find a place to rely on.

[Out of mind]

There are many women in today's society who strive for success and want to stand on their own feet. But I think they are far behind men now, why men are always twice ahead of women. When a country goes to various foreign projects to improve its finances, men are the only ones who work there to improve a country by remittances from abroad. That's why I always say that women will never be ahead of men, no matter how much they strive for success. Because a man always works hard to make a woman financially independent in order to keep her well. But today there are many women who run their business and family life, I think it is possible for those women to achieve success. But there are many women who do not have such a plan and depend on men to grow up, they will never succeed.

Yes, as far as I know, this is also the case. Many women start online or offline businesses with the aim of helping their household or family finances. There is nothing wrong with this, because women also have thoughts to maintain their family or household, by starting an online or offline business they can reap the benefits even if it is not much. At least they can get income for themselves and their families, and it is not mandatory for a woman to be prohibited from entrepreneurship. also many women are more focused on their careers so they don't think about their love affairs.
 
Thought biasana women tend to always think of other things when already have a decision, and this is good because they already have a plan before the occurrence of things that do not want, the idea that is common is also many who think that they can be independent by doing something that produces and profitable for them themselves, and also women are more slick in managing finances. So it is natural that women are entrepreneurial, what is not natural is, a man who is sure to have a big responsibility but they are not entrepreneurial or in other words just lazy.

Women don't want to do business because they want to help their husband. They do it because they don't want to depend on their husband for any financial needs. They think this makes them subservient and they won't have any right in the family or society. It is not bad for a woman to run a business but the problem occurs when they mock their husband or disrespect them for generating less money than they are. This makes them competent in society, but they lose respect for the counter sex.

[Mate2237]

When we come entrepreneurship women are more in the businesses but the most successful group is men. Even till date if we have 60 women that are into business and it will only 3% will be in the list of successful businesswomen but if 60 men are into business, you will confirm that 40% will be in the list of successful businessmen. Women are not risky takers but men face the storms to overcome the challenges ahead.

Women are more in business oriented while men are sceptical about business. It is only few men like to do business. That is why when a woman got married the husband would tell to do business while he would faced his work or continue his hustle.

Women are hardworking and dedicated when they are focus on what they do, which makes them quite suited for success in the entrepreneurial world. nowadays, women are increasingly starting their own businesses and making competition in employment vacancy. There are many reasons why women are well-positioned for success in entrepreneurship.

Women are often more relationship-oriented than men which can be a valuable asset in business, as it can help women build strong relationships with customers, employees, and partners. Women are often more detail-oriented than men which can be helpful in managing a business, as it can help women ensure that all aspects of their business are running well. Women are often more creative than men. This can be a valuable asset in developing new products or services, as well as in marketing and branding a business. If women are able to capitalize on their strengths and overcome their challenges, they have the potential to make a significant impact on the economy.

I won't say it as a result of difficult economic times. Instead, I think it's safe to say that now women are beginning to become intentional about entrepreneurship, maybe because of the support that is becoming available for women entrepreneurs. But some of the things you mentioned are simply because they are just women. However, it is equally safe to say that men are more confident and more hopeful than women. Most men are even better risk-takers than most women.

[Rasa nanas]

Yes, it is very possible that due to the increasingly difficult economy there will be more and more female entrepreneurs and of course this is not only about competition with men but competition between entrepreneurs is increasingly competitive. An increasingly difficult economy can trigger an increasing number of women entrepreneurs because economic difficulties can cause family finances to become unstable and force a housewife to have to help her husband earn money so that family finances become stable. and most likely what the housewife will do is become an entrepreneur by starting a small scale business.

I think not everyone is like that, mate, because I have also seen that there are many men who are afraid to take risks and there are some women who are not afraid to take too many risks when running a business or when they become entrepreneurs. It only depends on a person's character because not all men have a brave character when faced with risks, whereas for women, sometimes it is the opposite where they are more courageous in facing risks when they have to fight them for the progress of their own business. So we cannot conclude that all women are not very brave in facing risks and men can be very brave in facing risks, because in reality what I see is actually different and vice versa.

Emancipation and progress in women in my opinion is quite good and increasing in other countries as well, indeed the difference in statistical figures makes me think more about their contribution, women add to the progress and economic turnover of the country, the country needs the independence of its citizens and is not hindered by gender, at least the contribution of women will occupy an increasing volume every year, because the female population is more, similar topics I have read, that women's interests, habits and ways of thinking about Entrepreneurship are different and can be considered, it is possible that the results obtained are more and consistent. Women can also see new opportunities if they unite ideas with discussions, I think success in business can be achieved because the goal is money.

[moneystery]

the world of entrepreneurship is not related to gender because anyone can have the opportunity to become an entrepreneur. it's all related to privilege, motivation, ability to analyze and look for opportunities. for example, where i live, the average business owner here is a woman, this is probably because most women here have rich parents who can pay for their children's education and provide capital for business, so more women have the courage to open businesses and become entrepreneurs.

so it all depends on a person's motivation, opportunities and privileges, not depending on their gender.

[speeder]

I think a woman entrepreneur's will power is what makes her successful. Now in our country many women are seen to be associated with various trades like men. But the people of our society do not look favorably on women going outside the house to do any work. In today's era, many women want to achieve economic success on their own rather than being subordinated to men. However, many women entrepreneurs are running towards their own success without listening to the society. Also, many women have a good focus on cryptocurrencies. According to me, the government of every country should create opportunities for every woman entrepreneur
