Throughout history there has been much discussion of the disadvantages of being a woman, especially in business. Women have fought an uphill battle and I am proud to be part of such a strong group. I love being a female entrepreneur and you know what? I think I am at an advantage! Women have really made a presence in today’s business world and many are looked to for leadership and mentorship. Being a woman is a great gift that comes with a whole heap of benefits – here are my thoughts on the advantages of being a female entrepreneur below.
4 Advantages to Being a Female Entrepreneur
- Never doubt a woman’s intuition – I feel like I hear that saying often – and I do, because it’s totally true. Women are not afraid to go with their instincts and it pays off!
- Women have no problem creating a work environment that works for their lifestyle. Move over traditional office schemes and corporate culture – women are moms, wives, sisters, aunts – in other words they have a lot on their plates. Women are willing to set the tone for what they need.
- Women love to work together! Having an inclination toward being social is a great advantage when collaboration (even with a competitor) is needed to move a project forward. Sometimes collaboration is the name of the game!
- Women do not give up. We ladies work pretty hard, don’t you think? Women fight for what they believe and if they can’t get what they want on the first try – they find a creative way to get it.
Women are awesome! And I believe being a female has made me an even better business person. Do you think there are advantages to being a female entrepreneur?
