Resumo: | Purpose: The aim of this research is to describe the main reasons and difficulties for women to establish businesses and to identify possible differences between those that go into industry and those that establish commerce or service businesses.Originality/Gap/Relevance/Implications: The establishment of business is highly important for Entrepreneurship and its understanding is relevant to pinpoint the reasons and identify the difficulties that entrepreneurs have to establish their companies. Key methodological aspects: A quantitative study of 102 industry women entrepreneurs and 96 commerce / services entrepreneurs was carried out. Data were collected by a structured questionnaire and by two Likert scales which measured reasons and difficulties in the establishment of companies. A cluster analysis was undertaken to identify possible groups of attributes related to reasons and difficulties in the establishment of enterprises to group variables. Mann-Whitney test was employed to compare reasons and difficulties in the establishment of enterprises between the two groups (industry and commerce/service) to identify statistically significant differences. Summary of key results: Results by Mann-Whitney test revealed that the two groups assigned the same level of importance to the reasons for business establishment: improvement difficulty in the previous job; desire to financially help offspring; re-entry into the labor market; earning lot of money. The same test showed no significant difference in importance level assigned to eight difficulties for the establishment of business: I did not believe in my own capacity; I had never had any link with other companies; I did not have any access to industry information; People did not believe in my potential; I was afraid to quit my job; I was never acquainted with a business plan; I had no money for advertising my business; I found it difficult to choose the location of the company. Key considerations/conclusions: Results show that women entrepreneurs are not a homogenous group and that there is a need for public policies that would minimize difficulties in the setting up of companies to increase women´s participation as entrepreneurs. |

Los datos fueron recolectados a través de un cuestionario estructurado y dos escalas de Likert, que mide razones y dificultades en la creación de empresas. Se realizó un análisis de conglomerados para identificar posibles grupos de atributos relacionados con razones y las dificultades para crear empresas. Se utilizó la prueba de Mann-Whitney para comparar las razones y las dificultades en la creación de empresas en ambos grupos (industria y comercio / servicios) con el fin de identificar las diferencias estadísticamente significativas.Síntesis de los principales resultados: En el Mann-Whitney test dos grupos asignados el mismo nivel de importancia a los motivos de la creación de empresas: para ayudar financieramente a sus hijos; dificultad de crecimiento en el trabajo previo; regresar al mercado laboral; porque quería ganar mucho dinero. La misma prueba no mostró diferencias significativas en el nivel de importancia asignado a ocho dificultades para la creación de empresas: no creer en su potencial; nunca había tenido contacto con otras empresas; no había tenido acceso a la información de la industria; no creyeron en su potencial; tenía miedo de dejar su trabajo; no sabía que era un plan de negocios; No tenía dinero para la divulgación de su negocio; ha tenido dificultad de elegir la ubicación de la empresa.Principales consideraciones/conclusiones: Los resultados de esta investigación muestran que las mujeres empresarias no son un grupo homogéneo y que existe la necesidad de políticas encaminadas a reducir al mínimo las dificultades de la creación de empresas con el fin de aumentar la participación de las mujeres como empresarias.Objetivo: O objetivo desta pesquisa foi descrever as principais razões e as principais dificuldades para empreendedoras criarem seus negócios, bem como identificar possíveis diferenças entre as que empreenderam na indústria e as que o fizeram no comércio ou serviços.Originalidade/lacuna/relevância/implicações: A criação de empresas é importante para o Empreendedorismo e para compreendê-la é importante conhecer razões e dificuldades que empreendedores encontram para criarem suas empresas.Principais Aspectos Metodológicos: Foi realizado um estudo quantitativo com 102 empreendedoras da indústria e 96 no comércio/serviços. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um questionário estruturado e duas escalas do tipo Likert, as quais mensuraram razões e dificuldades para criação das empresas. Uma análise de cluster foi realizada para identificar possíveis grupos de atributos relacionados a razões e dificuldades para criar as empresas. O teste de Mann-Whitney foi empregado para comparar razões e dificuldades para criação de empresas nos dois grupos (indústria e comércio/serviços), a fim de identificar diferenças estatísticas significativas.Síntese dos Principais Resultados: Quanto aos resultados, o teste Mann-Whitney apontou que os dois grupos atribuíram o mesmo nível de importância às razões para criação do negócio: para ajudar financeiramente os filhos; dificuldade de crescimento no trabalho anterior; para se inserir novamente no mercado de trabalho; porque queria ganhar muito dinheiro. O mesmo teste indicou não haver diferença significativa quanto ao nível de importância atribuído a oito dificuldades para a criação do negócio: não acreditava no seu potencial; nunca tinha tido contato com outras empresas; não tinha tido acesso a informações do setor; as pessoas não acreditavam no seu potencial; tinha medo de deixar o emprego; não conhecia um plano de negócios; não tinha dinheiro para divulgação do negócio; encontrou dificuldade para escolher o local da empresa.Principais Considerações/Conclusões: Os resultados desta pesquisa mostram que as empreendedoras não representam um grupo homogêneo e que há necessidade de políticas voltadas à minimização das dificuldades de criação das empresas, a fim de aumentar a participação de mulheres como empreendedoras.Editora Mackenzie2016-06-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por ParesTécnicas multivariadasapplication/pdfapplication/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.documentimage/tiffimage/tiffimage/tiffimage/tiffapplication/mswordimage/tiffimage/tiffapplication/mswordapplication/mswordimage/tiffimage/tiffapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordapplication/mswordimage/tiffimage/tiffhttps://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/RAM/article/view/8290Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 17 No. 3 (2016)Revista de Administração Mackenzie; Vol. 17 Núm. 3 (2016)Revista de Administração Mackenzie (Mackenzie Management Review); v. 17 n. 3 (2016)1678-69711518-6776reponame:RAM.
