Finding Research about barriers and what is being done to close them

The National Women’s Business Council (NWBC) is a non-partisan federal advisory committee established to serve as an independent source of advice and policy recommendations to the Administrator of the SBA, Congress and the President.

In a recent article on Forbes by Shelley Zalis, founder of The Female Quotient, she describes what she has found by connecting 17,500 corporate and entrepreneurial women together. Firstly, that by supporting each other, women can make a big impact. Secondly, by collaborating and hearing from other women, you realize that your strengths make the group better. 

It is all about your inner circle. Being a part of an organization is important and something that has been found to benefit both women and men. Especially interesting is that, women have been found to be more successful with an additional “inner circle”.  The addition of a close-knit group for the success of women entrepreneurs is due to the availability of having candid conversations about potential clients, businesses and experiences in a space where trust has been established.
