National Business Women’s Week, held from October 21 to 27 this year, will once again honour the contribu- tions of female entrepreneurs. Many of these women, who are a huge source of inspiration for the next generation, do not believe in grounding their business models on the way men conduct business but instead promote their own values. For many years business women had to sublimate their personalities and strive to think like men in order to be accepted in the business world. Nowadays, however, they are able to follow their own creative drive and be successful without having to betray their own values. This can be attributed to the efforts of past generations of successful female entrepreneurs. But what is meant exactly by “feminine” ways of doing business? A good example is networking and commu- nicating. Indeed, in this era of globalization centred on knowledge and communications, business can
no longer be conducted as it used to be. Networking is vital in order to meet the new challenges facing entrepreneurs, both men and women. Women do not have the same way of exercising their power either. Unlike the pyramid type of hierarchy so representative of masculine values, women wield their power less authoritatively and give fewer orders, preferring to implement their power in a more indirect manner. In this way, when a conflict situation arises, many women will try to bring the parties closer together in order to find a win-win solution. During National Business Women’s Week, let’s celebrate the ways that today’s women do business, as well as the positive results their style has on the economy and society as a whole.
