| Abstract | The purpose of the study was to investigate the influence of culture characteristics on performance of women owned enterprises; A survey of Kisii town. This study was necessitated by the fact that women owned enterprises contribute to the rapidly growing segment of the business population in Kenya creating a variety of new ventures and contributing to the development of a range of services and products. This study will be significant to current women enterprises as it will offer them significant pointers on the cultural characteristics on performance of women owned enterprises. The results show: culture defined entrepreneurial training (β=.383, t=4.968, p<0.000) culture defined gender roles(β=.293, t=3.593, p<0.004), culture defined level of education, (β=.334, t=5.383, p<0.000), and culture defined experience, (β=.362, t=4.129, p<0.000), had a significant influence on performance of women owned enterprises in Kisii town. The study therefore recommends: the women owned enterprises should engage in informal entrepreneurial education to help them get the prerequisite training to effectively perform better in entrepreneurial activities despite the cultural issues involved. |
