Beskrivning
This Research Handbook highlights the importance of women as agents of change, acknowledging women entrepreneurs’ efforts and supporting their value-creation activities. With important implications for policymaking, contributing authors direct attention to and provide evidence for the positive contribution of women entrepreneurs to the economy, regardless of their businesses’ size and formal status.Challenging the underperformance hypothesis associated with women entrepreneurs, chapters present evidence that women do not underperform in their businesses, but that they add value even in constrained environments. This intends to shift the focus of research from questions like ‘what do entrepreneurs do?’ to ‘how do they do it?’, focusing on the unique ways in which each woman entrepreneur creates value, and ‘for whom do they do it?’, looking at the multiple value outcomes women entrepreneurs create and the beneficiaries of that value.With a global perspective on women’s entrepreneurship and their value creation, this Research Handbook will be vital reading for researchers of entrepreneurship, as well as government agencies and policymakers interested in promoting entrepreneurial activity.

Recensioner i media

‘This rich and inspiring book provides a collection of chapters that offer a very timely and critical reminder of the value created through women’s entrepreneurship. Under the guidance of Yousafzai, Henry, Boddington, Sheikh and Fayolle, the reader is encouraged to really reflect on what influences and constrains the growth of women’s entrepreneurship. At the same time, we are introduced to real insight into how women’s entrepreneurship plays out and is practiced in a variety of different and very interesting contexts. I am confident that this Research Handbook will be valued by many communities across the world and will provide the foundation for furthering real knowledge and understanding. I applaud the authors and editors for their exceptional and inspiring work.’
