Abstract
In the current economic and employment crisis, women-run enterprises represent an important
opportunity to create new jobs and stimulate innovation. This article presents the
results of empirical and comparative research based on ten case studies of small artisan
firms. The study compared five small enterprises led by women with five extremely
similar firms where the entrepreneurs were men. This article discusses the different
styles of leadership and analyses in which way they produce different personal satisfaction
and different means to create support organizational networks for both business and
personal life.
The results of the study suggest several implications for policy-making.
