In developing countries, the role of women in the business sector is continuously improving. As a result, female enterprises have also been encouraged in Pakistan. This study is based on life cycle development phases from which women-owned enterprises have to go through in order to become successful. As a primary data source, face-to-face interviews with owners of successful women-owned enterprises were preferred. The data collection process was divided into two phases i.e. Phase-I and Phase-II. After data collection, qualitative analysis has been performed using NVIVO. Findings provide both generic and specific factors involved in life cycle development of women-owned enterprises. This study provides a detailed view of life cycle development model followed by successful women enterprises. The outcome of this research work is a theoretical finding which can be utilized by entrepreneurs owning small scale enterprises to improve their level of performance. Findings can also be helpful for potentially talented women interested in setting up their own business.

Abstract Based on data that tracks curriculum vitae (CV) and publication records as well as survey information from sociologists in German academia, we examine the effects of parenthood on the publication output of male and female academics that were present in German universities or research institutes in the year 2013. Results indicate that having children leads to a significant decline in the number of publications by women on average, while not affecting the number of publications by men. However, the gendered effect of children on productivity hardly mitigates differences in publication output between men and women, as women still publish about 20 per cent less than men after controlling for the adverse effects of children on productivity. The gendered effect of childbearing depends partly on prior levels of women’s academic achievements, suggesting a mechanism of performance-driven self-selection. Lower-performing women tend to suffer a stronger motherhood penalty than better performing women, while the publication output of successful women (who have been granted academic awards) is not reduced through childbirth. The results indicate that women are better at managing the ‘double burden’ of kids and career if external, award-giving committees have bestowed prestige upon them or indicated their potential for a scientific career.

Data on women who create satisfying lives for themselves are needed to identify the personality characteristics of strong, successful women. The handwritings of two groups (70 successful and 42 not-so-successful) of women were compared, using the Roman-Staempfli Psychogram, a graphological charting system, and nine additional categories. The women were divorced, married, or single; their ages ranged from 19 to 80 yr.; their backgrounds were socioeconomically varied. The one-way analyses of variance showed that 24 of the 38 indicators originally expected to be significantly different between the groups proved to be so. Also supporting specific hypotheses were 10 of the 14 indicators originally expected to not be significantly different. These results suggest the qualities considered important for achievement can be inferred from the handwritings of successful women and can be measured graphologically. Possible reasons for variance from the hypotheses were discussed.

Abstract There are many greats in science history but relatively few women scientists that could be chosen as role models. This essay presents some from among contemporary contributors to chemistry, biochemistry, biology, physics, and astronomy. They had overcome barriers of discrimination, the difficulties of managing their time between research and family, and all have triumphed. They include some of the most famous, such as Isabella Karle, Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard, Anne McLaren, and Vera Rubin, and some less famous, including examples from Russia, India, and Turkey. Their presentation is based on personal encounters with them by the author; herself a scientist, wife, and mother.

This article is aimed at identifying, systematizing and analyzing the causes of postnatal depression in women. Despite the seeming limitations, this is a rather serious problem of a socio-psychological nature. Indeed, the manifestations of postnatal depression significantly affect not only the woman herself, but also her child, her other children, her husband, i.e. for the whole family. The feeling of social isolation in women who gave birth is very sharply reflected in her psyche, especially among successful women.
