The issues of gender equality still pervade South Africa’s democratic form of government after more than 20 years. This is due in part to Africa’s culture and views about the role of women and how they should function in society. This also applies in the widening gap between females and entrepreneurs.
Companies in South Africa favorably compare with the rest of world. In fact, a significant proportion of the senior management is governed by women. However, according to one consultant, significant progress is still to be made in the business sector.
Despite women making up around half of the world’s population, they only have made a minor but important dent in the sector that is purely run by testosterone-fueled individuals. This is due to the barriers that have held women back in this specific field in South Africa.
Regardless, it is still noteworthy that women have made such an impact in the business sector and knowing the facts and statistics could help reach out and empower others out there to also stand up and pursue their dreams regardless of the hurdles along the way.
