Abstract

De la sphère de l'intime à la sphère des affaires, cet ouvrage propose d'analyser les trajectoires ascensionnelles de commerçantes mauritaniennes devenues businesswomen. De Nouakchott aux comptoirs chinois, de Paris à Dubaï, ces commerçantes transnationales font des affaires. Ajustant et réajustant leurs connexions, ces importatrices « en gros » de marchandises variées (meubles, vêtements, matériel audiovisuel, vaisselle) servent avec pragmatisme leurs intérêts économiques. En véritables big women, elles disposent de compétences relationnelles au sein de la classe politico-économique, des compétences parfois spécifiquement féminines puisque certaines sont passées maîtresses dans l'art de transformer leur capital beauté en capital social et financier. Stratèges individuelles, elles jouent avec les représentations collectives, instrumentalisent les discours communautaristes – comme le tribalisme et le régionalisme – et accaparent avec succès les politiques de promotion féminine. Ainsi propulsées dans l'élite politico-commerciale – pour laquelle la richesse, le luxe et la consommation ostentatoire ouvrent à de nouvelles hiérarchies sociales – ces femmes donnent en spectacle et diffusent un nouveau mode de vie, celui des gens qui ont réussi. Du local au global, leur succès professionnel répond à des dynamiques qui allient savoir-faire, calculs rationnels et heureux opportunismes. Ces femmes incarnent aujourd'hui la réussite en Mauritanie.

Abstract

"Women are the future of American business. According to a recent Nielsen report, women will control two-thirds of American consumer wealth in less than a decade. And yet almost all business and success literature is still written for men-dispensing advice that doesn't take into account women's unique strengths or address the demands of family life on mothers. This powerful new book-from the award-winning author of Think and Grow Rich: Three Feet from Gold and coauthor of the multimillion-selling Rich Dad, Poor Dad-combines Hill's classic Thirteen Steps to Success with case studies of noteworthy women (including Sandra Day O'Connor, Angela Merkel, Mary Kay founder Mary Kay Ash, and IBM CEO Ginni Rometty), outlining a master plan for success for all women"-- "Re-imagining the classic wealth-building, self-help masterwork THINK AND GROW RICH as a guide for modern women, this new book--officially authorized by the Napoleon Hill Foundation--analyzes the lives of outstanding women from the past and today, and uses their stories to support Hill's Thirteen Steps for Riches"--

Abstract

This two-volume work provides balanced and thorough coverage of women entrepreneurs in multicultural and international contexts as well as in the Western world. Entrepreneurial Women: New Management and Leadership Models explores how women everywhere are empowering themselves socially and economically through entrepreneurship and business ownership. The contributors consider how discrimination against women in the workplace can contribute to the inspiration to become business owners in the first place and document the experiences of African American women entrepreneurs as well as women in distinct settings such as China, Africa, rural Jamaica, and Silicon Valley. The work draws on empirical studies, data sets, case studies, and descriptions of career trajectories to portray the realities of women entrepreneurs today. Readers will understand the distinctive challenges and opportunities involved with the entrepreneurship process for women-owned businesses, grasp how women have overcome their disadvantages in getting funding and accessing capital, and learn about the unique management and leadership style of women entrepreneurs.
