WOMEN ARE SUPER FLEXIBLE WHEN IT COMES TO BUSINESS
After the recent seismic shift in focus on strong women in business and popular culture, women entrepreneurs and creatives are boldly and successfully breaking records with their unique creative power all over the world.
No longer is it a profession dominated solely by men who have for a better part of the last century hogged the business limelight and headlines.
Post the abusive Harvey Weinstein fiasco and the implosion of Hollywood ethics, the equality storm still rages daily.
In the space of 12 months we have seen the release of numerous female led movies that unsurprisingly have performed exceptionally well including, ‘Woman Wonder’ $821m ,
‘Incredibles 2’ $519m and ‘The Shape of Water’ $64m to name but three.
This is all great news for new business and a balancing of the sexual Creative Power status quo.
It has also been shown with recent research that female-owned firms generate higher revenues, create more jobs, and perform better in terms of providing investment returns.
Also, women are more effective leaders and have a larger appetite for growth.
We are in a tremendous time of creative growth, new opportunity and equality for both men and women.
And, I for one think this is reason enough to celebrate and list what 10 of the top women entrepreneurs and creatives have to say about their success.
