35 % of the Business Women have a turnover of less than € 25.000. That is not a business but a hobby
Business Women get less access to (men with) capital and therefore they restrict their businesses from expansion
From all the major business deals which are closed in the world, ONLY 1 % go to women
Women tend to position themselves weaker than men, even when their service is much better
One of the biggest problems of women is perfectionism. It stops them from starting early. Therefore they miss opportunities and cannot create momentum as fast as men do
Tineke Rensen was the only female entrepreneur in her industry since 1990. Therefore, she learned to do business the masculine way. It is a successful way. She also became the national champion in her sport white water kayaking. And competed at world level.
Whenever she encountered women, she saw they had a different approach. It did not match her definition of success, which was very masculine. When she started to develop her feminine skills in business she saw another definition of success. She soon realised that the combination of the masculine and feminine way is the best way to have success in business. She also saw that many women needed to improve the masculine skills to get the business they desire. So, she sold her business and started teaching these masculine business skills to businesswomen all over the world. She is a trainer, speaker and international bestselling author.“I have read this book with a lot of pleasure and recognition. I grant this book to every entrepreneur even to male business owners. But you have to have the skill to look in the mirror and look at yourself and your business. Then this book will help you tremendously”.
