dc.description.abstractPrevious research has explored the impacts of tokenism on women entrepreneurs regarding heightened visibility, polarization, and assimilation pressures. While various studies have explored the barriers and challenges women entrepreneurs experience due to gender bias and tokenism, further research is needed to explore the phenomenon of resiliency and self-efficacy among this population. In this study we will further explore these themes and examine how self-efficacy and resilience may play a role in coping and thriving in these traditionally male dominated spaces. We will conduct qualitative interviews with women thriving in leadership roles to further illuminate instances of resiliency and self-efficacy of women in male-dominated fields. We will conduct 5 semi-structured interviews with diverse women leaders about their experiences in leadership using an interpretive phenomenological analysis. We hypothesize that there will be themes found in token women entrepreneur research that suggests a strong sense of self-efficacy and remarkable resilience in women entrepreneurs.
