[.ca] Clearing the Hurdles: Women Building High-Growth Businesses (ISBN 0131112015)

Authors' credibility speaks volumes:
Here, in one book, you will find the collective wisdom of five leading academics on the subject of women entrepreneurs and high growth businesses. This incredibly well-researched book is the culmination of years of work on the gold standard of studies of women in business called "The Diana Project". While women entrepreneurs have forged their own path and now account for over 50% of all new business start ups, issues still remain around perceptions and misconceptions of women in business by those who control purchasing and funding decisions. This book provides a road map for navigating these issues, while at the same time it holds a mirror up to everyone by laying out facts and case studies regarding the hurdles women face in breaking some of the last barriers to acheiving full economic parity.
