Women in Business
Unmute is a consulting firm specialized in women leadership development, strategically positioned to support women in business or aspiring businesswomen.
The number of women entrepreneurs has been on the rise over the recent decades, and it is undeniable that women can succeed in business.
However, we noticed that despite the commendable progress women have registered in business, they still face daunting challenges. These challenges range from limited finance to lack of self-belief and an unhealthy pressure to prove they deserve equal opportunity in the corporate environment. Most women in business, especially beginners, struggle to find financing no matter how brilliant their ideas are. Perhaps this appears like you and your business at the moment.
In addition to limited finance, businesswomen remain the only gender expected to balance responsibilities.
Achieving a balance between career and domestic responsibilities often demands costly compromises from women, making their business success more unlikely. Unmute has meticulously collected a set of skills to help you jump this huddle.
Also, many women entrepreneurs have less than enough knowledge to compete favourably in today's business environment.
This deficiency is not unexpected, given that in most jurisdictions, women lack the empowerment to seek access to information.
Lastly, many women struggle with the fear of failure.
This fear is fuelled by the pressure to perform. Culturally, there is already a deep-seated bias and lack of faith against women entrepreneurs. For most women, this missing emotional support dampens any shred of self-belief they had, making them operate from a place of fear and distrust in their efforts.
