Abstract
Women entrepreneurs are an emerging economic force today. Given the global challenges of our business climate, it is imperative to facilitate the participation of women and encourage them to strive for leadership by giving them equal opportunity for competition. This paper discusses how women entrepreneurship is at the heart of a nation's economic development, and how success and barriers enhance and hinder their roadmap to entrepreneurship. The author has incorporated the findings of an extensive literature review of research published by scholars, mainly in the areas of entrepreneurial success, barriers, education and training. This paper also highlights innovation, human capital and social capital as key facilitators for success, while identifying a number of barriers and problems encountered by women worldwide especially in developing countries. To help women entrepreneurs become successful, it is important to provide training and education using a systematic approach.
