Women in business have long faced significant limitations, both external barriers like the “glass ceiling” and internal struggles such as self-doubt. Despite these challenges, a growing number of women are leveraging digital entrepreneurship skills to overcome these obstacles. The glass ceiling, a metaphorical barrier preventing women from advancing to upper levels of business, has been a source of frustration and inequality for many. Women often have to work much harder than their male counterparts to achieve similar positions, and this disparity can discourage many from pursuing high-level corporate roles.
However, the rise of digital technology has opened new pathways for women to bypass these traditional barriers. By embracing skills such as computer literacy, social commerce, and AI applications, women can create their own opportunities as entrepreneurs. Success stories like Joanne's, who transitioned from a university librarian to a full-time e-commerce entrepreneur, exemplify this trend. Instead of battling an entrenched system, women are finding strength in unity, supporting each other, and focusing on inner growth. This proactive approach not only empowers women individually but also fosters a supportive community, paving the way for future generations to thrive without the limitations of a male-dominated business world.
