Abstract

In many parts of the developing country, women have far more financial chance overall today than they did a generation ago. Women’s health, education, and labor force contribution levels have grown significantly, rising living standards and strengthening humanities worldwide. Nowadays, despite women’s tendency toward participation in economic, social, and cultural affairs, females’ entrepreneurship became so limited and there seems to be no optimal use of their abilities in business. However, a prominent indication of developed countries is female entrepreneurship. A method for increasing women’s participation in economic affairs and business is conducted by appropriate plans and policies by government officials. Current research is done by using library and survey. Studies in the research show that knowing different aspects of business and the method in which each person enters the area, can save the country from economic crisis according to behaviorist psychologists.
