Check out this awesome article by Molly Petrilla about how women business leaders outperform many of their male counterparts!
Successful women entrepreneurs are not only matching their male counterparts – in several ways, they’re outperforming them.
That’s according to the 2016 BNP Paribas Global Entrepreneur Report, for which Scorpio Partnership consultancy surveyed about 2,600 high and “ultra-high” net worth entrepreneurs from 18 countries.
The researchers found that almost 90% of women entrepreneurs expected their companies’ gross profits to increase or remain stable in the next year. More specifically, 61% expected profits to rise, compared to an average of 58% among all entrepreneurs.
