In order to talk about women's success, you must first determine what a success story for women's business will be considered "honest." In fact, there are so many "successful" women in the world - rich or famous, owners of businesses and retail chains, certain brands.
But some of them achieved high results only thanks to relatives - husbands, brothers or parents. Let's agree that in this article we do not consider the "wives of oligarchs" or the rich heirs of centuries-old dynasties. Let's talk about what can give strength to act to every woman - about those of us who are really successful. Themselves, from scratch, and thanks to our own efforts.
What unites successful women?
The history of the success of women's business can be different, and the time of action is not only the present or the past century. But there is always one that unites such representatives of the fair sex. For centuries, there were like two different types of women - "domestic" and active, active.
The activity of a woman can manifest itself at different ages. There is a history of business success for women who have reached the heights of both twenty and sixty. Maria Sharapova and Irina Khakamada - from "our", Coco Chanel and Mary Kay - from foreign. Actresses and ballerinas, politicians and "first wives" who actively manage men (and first of all - their husbands). The success stories of women's business are as diverse as the business itself. After all, you will not deny that politics is also business, only bigger and more complicated?
The qualities of women
Women "start" in business in different ways. Someone - in company with others, and some - only themselves. And each of them has to prove their right to opinion, to the position and actions that correspond to it.
We initially know what is right for us and what is not.
Another thing is that many allow themselves to "go with the flow" or engage in what the soul does not lie to. I would like to recall the example of Indra Nui - an Indian woman, who today heads the company PepsiCo. Once upon a time, she was an ordinary Indian girl, who just decided at all costs to get an economic education.
With her arrival in Pepsi, revenues increased by 20%, which under the current market situation seemed almost impossible. She worked in the company from 1994 to 2002, to achieve the current situation. Just eight years of hard work - and the result is impressive not only the woman herself - the president of Pepsi, but also many others. And how much time did you spend on unworthy work places?
Similarly, the stories of success of women's business - those who worked for themselves. Appeals to stop working "on uncle" are so frequent that we do not notice real decisions. Everyone seems not so suitable for us. And many already dared - and succeeded!
The idea - the embodiment - the brand
Natalia Kasperskaya, Joan Kathleen Rowling, Kylie Minogue, and thousands of other women who were able to achieve success in different areas of business have already made their name. And unlike faceless men's business empires, women often bear the names of their creators. The company Mary Kay and the Oprah Winfrey show are equally successful, and they are united by the most important quality - the "brand name of me".
Do not the gods burn pots
Simultaneously, can you say that one of the women was uniquely genius and unique in his work? Started not by thousands - millions around the world, but succeeded in unit. These ladies remembered the main rule - not the gods burn pots. And at the same time they did what they liked, giving all their creative powers to their offspring.
Women's business mission
The fact that for a man - a business for a woman is often the cause of her whole life.
At least for the time being, she is interested in this matter. The usual, "routine" business "buy-sell" for women is less interesting. Female success in business - this is often the success of the mission. Give the world a book that will be read by both children and their parents. Or get everyone to discuss important issues in the home circle by watching a talk show.
And when you feel a) the craving for creativity, b) the desire to make the world better by your own hands, then the success will come as if by itself.
Do not listen to anyone!
When you are confident in yourself, luck accompanies you, and the world seems to push apart the misty veil so that the path could be seen more clearly. But you should listen to what your mother says, the husband, who is accustomed to seeing a housewife in a legal wife, or maximalist children, you can start burying a dream.
At the first stage, when you create your own path, your success story, you will have to believe in yourself and "for your dad," "for your mother," and for everyone else. This is how the stories of great women who have managed to do something significant for this world are written. And for the right to join in what you know how to do and did the best, many will want to pay. This is a full, real female success.
