Countless hurdles have been laid for women over the years. Surpassing all of
these hurdles successfully is still a challenge.
These are some of the problems women face after starting their business
• Familyproblems
• Management of Finance
• Managing manpower
• Professional disrespect
The key reason of women being blocked from business is that they are
women. Male prejudice is still prevalent in India. Male is still considered the
dominant gender and sole bread provider. The view that Indian women lack self-
14
confidence, willpower, mental composure and entrepreneurial attitude has made
devastating effects on India. This view has kept the women from becoming leaders
and has also instilled fear in women.
This age-old prejudice has also convinced a portion of women that they are
unable to take risks; that they are unable to access technology, deal effectively with
workers and that the best job for them is to raise a family.
However, India is full of examples new and old that a woman can be an
entrepreneur and a successful one at that. Compared to men, fewer female
businesses fail because of poor financial management once their business get kick.
The problems women face pose a challenge for government and the
authorities to tackle, but with the right approach and some time, they can be
solved. Everyone must understand the importance of women entrepreneurship. On
top of all, women need motivation and any discouragement must be dealt with.
Following are some measures that can be taken to make women empowered
so that they can continue their business activities as confidently as Indian men.
