Business and community go hand in hand for women entrepreneurs

Have you noticed a golden thread that connects successful women entrepreneurs? And it’s not what you might think. It’s not that they all went to similar universities and share an MBA in common, or have developed a particular type of high growth business plan, or that they are in women-centric business or industry sectors. If you look at their personal stories about how they have started and grown their businesses and what makes them tick, the common thread is that they are also passionate about the power of community. For so many women entrepreneurs, it’s not just about making money and being successful for the sake of it, it’s about building a business that can also make a real difference in the lives of other people and supporting the growth of strong communities. They understand that with this approach, everybody benefits.
