Female-Led High-Growth: Examining the Role of Human and Financial Resource Management
研究女性领导的企业如何利用人力与财务资本实现高增长，发现女性企业家能更有效地杠杆这些资源，对创业支持政策有启示。
We integrate research on upper echelons theory, the resource-based view, and gender to explore conditions that facilitate high growth for female-led firms. We argue that female entrepreneurs have certain advantages that help them leverage their firms’ human and financial capital to achieve high growth. In support, using a sample of U.S.-based entrepreneurial firms, we found evidence that having a female lead entrepreneur positively moderated the positive relationships between indicators of firms’ human and financial capital and high growth. The findings have implications for programs, policies, and practices to encourage more high growth in firms with female lead entrepreneurs.
