4 Activity 3.6b Gender analysis of The Profile of the successful entrepreneur Eurostat Statistics in Focus 29/2006 Do enterprises fair better in the hands of men rather than women, or vice-versa? To shed more light on gender as a possible key factor in business success, the motivations for starting up, the start-up difficulties encountered and the judgement of profitability are looked at more closely. The motivations for start-up are analysed for the average of the available countries and by country. Readers should note that in the Factors of Business Success (FOBS) survey, 28% of entrepreneurs were women and 72% were men. In order to establish to what extent the FOBS survey reflects the working population, Figure 9 compares the proportion of women in the FOBS survey with the share in the working population. When comparing the FOBS survey with the Labour force survey (LFS), readers should note that they are based on different populations. While the FOBS survey questions businesses, the LFS draws its data from households. Moreover, while in the LFS 43% of respondents are women, in the FOBS survey this is only 28%. On average, to be my own boss is the main motivation for most entrepreneurs, while the second one is to make more money. Behind this country average however, to be my own boss was the first choice for the Czech Republic, Estonia, France, Italy, Latvia and Lithuania, while for Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Bulgaria and Romania, to make more money was deemed as being the most important. In Luxembourg however, entrepreneurs cited to work as subcontractor for my former employer as their first choice. When it comes to the second choice, there is slightly more diversity in entrepreneurs choice: to make more money (Estonia, Italy, Latvia and Lithuania), to be my own boss (Denmark, Austria and Slovakia), new challenges (Czech Republic, France, Portugal, Sweden and Slovenia). Exceptions to this were Luxembourg with age of children and Bulgaria to avoid unemployment. Whereas the start-up motivations new challenges and to be my own boss give similar percentages for male and female founders for the motivation to make more money there are in many countries significant differences between men and women. In eleven out of fifteen countries the share of women is lower than the share of men. As shown in Figure 11, shares of men and women vary between NACE activities. Whereas NACE Section F Construction is clearly a male domain (96.1%), women would seem to prefer starting up their own business in Hotels and restaurants (NACE Section H, 43.2%), where they are however a minority as well. For both groups, the first three motivations are the desire to be my own boss (F: 73.6%, M: 75.7%), the prospect of making more money (F: 70.6%, M: 73.4%) and the desire for new challenges (F: 67.2%, M: 8.0%). Looking at some of the other motivations, for women, the motivations to avoid unemployment, to combine work and private life and the age of the children would seem to be more important than for men. By contrast, for men, to get away from an unsatisfactory work situation is more important than to combine work and private life. Whereas the age of children comes 10th place out of 13, this motivation is for men ranks last-but one. Table 2 shows that more men than women assess their enterprises as innovative, with the exception of Italy, Luxembourg and Sweden. In the cases where more women than men assess their enterprises as innovative, innovation is mostly related to the marketing domain (Denmark, Italy, Luxembourg, Austria, Portugal, Slovenia, Sweden, and Bulgaria). With the exception of Luxembourg, men dominate strongly the process innovation; this
5 means the technical aspect of innovation. Among the difficulties encountered by entrepreneurs starting up, do men and women cite one or the other more often? As shown in Figure 12, for women contacts with customers is the first difficulty (60.5%) and the second one is administrative problems (60.2%), whereas for men administrative problems (64.4%) ranges first followed by contacts with customers (61.5%). Differences between both groups are rather small but men cite more often outstanding invoices, finding suitable personnel and information technology as start-up difficulties. Alone as entrepreneur, pricing goods, finding premises, finding suppliers and backing from family were mentioned slightly more frequently by women. Do men and women assess the current profitability of their enterprise differently? It would seem that men are slightly more positive (Figures 13a and 13b). Asked to rate the profitability of their enterprise, 31.3% of women considered it was good, which was less than the share of men (37%). By contrast, a greater share of women (26.9 %) believed that profitability was poor (men: 18.9%). Even if for both genders, the share of entrepreneurs rating profitability as either barely sufficient or poor is higher than those rating it as either very good or good, men would seem to be more optimistic.
