In the News ~ Reluctance to Hire

According to this story in USA Today, businesses owned by women don't tend to grow as well or as fast as those owned by men. As most of you (and all of me) are women, I ask you, "Do you agree?"

I'm torn. On one hand, I do like to do things my way. That's why I started working for myself in the beginning. I like how I do things. Although I have to say, I think that's my independent nature, more than my feminine nature. On the other hand, I often think about the days when I can hand over the parts of my job that I hate. Accounting, tax forms, etc. Someday, someone else will be doing that. Then I can work more... and grow, right?

What do you think?

  1. Interesting. I know alot of my own traits that would make it very difficult to turn over control and trust others to perform to my standards but at some point I guess you have to...I do wonder if when women DO hire if there has been a study done to see if female owned businesses are biased toward hiring women...hmmm, thanks for getting my mind moving tonight!
