Ever wonder why women owned businesses are 1.7 times more productive than male owned businesses? Here are 3 reasons why women make better business owners than men.
Later this month I've been invited to speak at the National Association of Women Business Owner's annual conference in San Antonio, TX on the subject of how women business owners can spark and sustain real growth in their companies.

Go ahead, admit it. I'll confess that I'm no paragon of punctuality myself. And I have lots of company. Recent research by Blue Jeans Network shows an astonishing 81 percent of meetings fail to start on time. But just because tardiness is rapidly becoming the norm doesn't make it OK. For all of us who've let sloppiness about time turn into a daily or weekly habit, it's time to stop.
Here's why:
1. It's impolite.
I come from New York City, and although it's a wonderful town in many ways, it's arguably the rudeness capital of the world. So I wasn't surprised to learn that people on the East Coast are the worst offenders when it comes to showing up late for meetings.
