Against the doom and gloom of the GFC emerges a surprisingly good news story – the growth of the ‘enterprise culture’. At the forefront of this rising tide of self-employment and small business ownership women firmly stand, with stats for last year showing twice as many businesses were started by women than men.
From mothers juggling babes and business at the kitchen table to the ‘one - woman show’ running a restaurant or retail outlet to the woman at the helm of a large business there’s a stampede of women creating new business.
Born from seeds of initiative and self-reliance this powerful movement is committed to creating a business culture based on our values rather than the predetermined values of the existing business structure and culture. We’ll do it our way …. whatever that way is! Whilst this ‘new economy’ is exciting, edgy and offers women enormous opportunity it also contains greater risk and insecurity.
In a speech recently I stated that I didn’t think SHE Business would have existed 10 years ago, maybe not even 5 years ago and I believe this to be so. We are very much a new enterprise, a business club for entrepreneurs and businesswomen offering distinct products and services to the forerunners of this new economy.
Next month we officially launch SHE Business and we do it with our partner Women in Focus and alongside two great leaders,Avril Henry and Dr Helena Popovic who are guest speakers at our celebratory and powerful event, Fearlessly Creating.
Our wish is for you to join us - why?
