Full Description
This fascinating book illuminates the need for innovative research to better understand women's roles in entrepreneurship and family firms. Underscoring the importance of using diverse methodologies to accurately capture real-world experiences, it explores the corporate challenges women face, such as gender bias and balancing work with family.
Women in Entrepreneurship and Family Businesses advocates for the expansion of research into historical contexts using archival and documentary evidence, uncovering the stories of women entrepreneurs of the past.
