Sažetak
Entrepreneurship and entrepreneur are related terms, and it is impossible to talk about one without other term. An entrepreneur is a person who bears the risk of a business venture, and if it is greater the greater the uncertainty about the future business opportunities. During the last ten years, with the development of small enterprises in the business dictionary introduces the concept of "Women Entrepreneurs", which is very typical for transition countries, i.e. the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. The transition from nonmarket to a market economy has caused an economic crisis, and therefore unemployment. In most cases, women are the ones that among the first to lose their jobs, and for many of them selfemployment or starting their own business lifeline to exit from unemployment. Woman entrepreneurs are thinking about work more comprehensive and realistic look at things from male entrepreneurs. They are more likely to respect other people's opinions and advice collaborators better understand the people, not just customers, but also co-workers and employees, because they are socially sensitive and realistically assessed and evaluated people's behavior. It is important to emphasize that women entrepreneurs as well as male entrepreneurs are highly educated, prone to taking risks and most importantly have developed an entrepreneurial spirit. Woman entrepreneurs prefer transformational leadership, allowing subordinates to align their interests and connect with the interests of the group or company. Today are more visible initiatives to improve women's entrepreneurship within all social and political institutions. These initiatives are primarily aimed at reducing root barriers for women, improving the education system, providing incentives available to women. Unfortunately, discrimination against women in the labor market is still present in mentality is still prevailing stereotypes about gender roles, traditional and outdated belief that women belong with the family and that she has no business in business. On the women's ambition is viewed as something unnatural and the paranormal, where there is power and a large amount of money to women generally has no place. Women must choose career or family while men never ask, but despite the slow economic changes in our country is more and more women in entrepreneurship, disregarding the environment and outdated thinking people, but pushed forward and raise the average woman in entrepreneurship versus male counterparts’ entrepreneurs.
