Notes de l'éditeur
No single set of characteristics describes successful entrepreneurs. Anyone can become an entrepreneur.
Starting and managing your own business can be a very rewarding experience, but it can also be highly stressful!
For many women, the best way to break the “glass ceiling” is through entrepreneurship. The number of women-owned businesses is growing 1.5 times faster than the national average.
Minority-owned businesses have grown significantly over the last two decades, but still have a long way to go.
One advantage that older entrepreneurs have is the wisdom that comes from experience.
