Women Entrepreneurship and Regional Development: An Overview

Women are goal oriented, independent, flexible, tolerant, creative, realistic, enthusiastic and energetic because of which the management style differs from their male counterpart. Women are by and large born managers as they manage their house. They can simultaneously do more than one task at a time and have good coordination skills. They invariably think of entering a business once their children are grown up and household responsibilities get reduced. Women rely on their own finance and avoid availing of loans. Any women who generates business idea, sets up an organisation, combines the factors of production, operates the unit, undertakes
risks and handles the problem involved in managing a business enterprise that is called as women entrepreneur.
