Women's entrepreneurship in a turbulent era

edited by Colette Henry (Head of Department of Business Studies, Dundalk Institute of Technology (DkIT), Ireland, and Griffith University Australia), Joan Ballantine (Department of Accounting, Finance and Economics, Ulster University Business School, Ulster University (UU), Northern Ireland), Shumaila Yousafzai (Graduate School of Business, Nazarbayev University, Kazakhstan and Cardiff University, UK), and Roshni Narendran (Tasmanian School of Business and Economics, University of Tasmania, Australia)

"Uncovering how women entrepreneurs have navigated adverse situations through innovation and adaptability, Women's Entrepreneurship in a Turbulent Era explores the nuanced experiences of these business owners. It offers valuable insights into women's entrepreneurial efforts in redefining the norms and rules in a rapidly changing world. This book analyses the challenges women entrepreneurs have faced during unsettled times, including the COVID-19 pandemic, and polarising political and conflict situations. Leading scholars from both the Global North and South examine the strategies women have adopted to protect their business ventures and encourage them to thrive. They prompt the reader to look further into the contextual embeddedness of women-owned enterprises, and to continue the ongoing research into this rapidly advancing subject area. Academics and students focusing on entrepreneurship, gender studies and management will find this book to be of crucial interest. It will also be a beneficial resource for practitioners and policy makers seeking further insight into how recent international challenges have affected women entrepreneurs"--
