Careerpreneurs

the long version

"Women in record numbers are breaking away from the constraints of corporate life to seek fulfillment in business on their own or in their own way. Careerpreneurs captures the voices of these pioneers - both those forging a path inside an organization and those out in the entrepreneurial limelight - who describe their strategies for success and the potential pitfalls. These women model the hallmarks of a self-managed career: portable skills and knowledge, meaningful work, on-the-job learning, the development of multiple networks, and personal responsibility.". "Dorothy Perrin Moore identifies multiple distinct entrepreneurial patterns - from Market Creators and Boundary Spanners to Mavericks and Copreneurs. She examines the often overlooked group of dual-career business owners who overlap home and family in the firm they jointly operate full-time, and explores the unique organizational structure, leadership, and management styles found in women-owned businesses."--BOOK JACKET.
