“…In contrast, Bagheri et al (2023) noted economic and emotional challenges in turbulent contexts, where strategies for resource optimization and emotional regulation strengthen entrepreneurs' resilience. However, Njiwa et al (2023) suggested that technological adoption moderates the relationship between female leadership dominance and organizational tenacity.…”

Resilience in female entrepreneurship emerges as a critical component that significantly influences the achievement and capacity to overcome challenges inherent in the creation and management of businesses. To address this topic, the present article focused on conducting a systematic review of the scientific literature to examine how resilience stands as a determining factor enabling female entrepreneurs to navigate obstacles and achieve success in their ventures. In line with this objective, a bibliographic methodology was implemented that included synthesizing information from various databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, and SciELO. The results reveal a scarcity of publications on this particular topic, thus highlighting the importance of addressing these gaps in the literature. This approach is essential for gaining a more holistic understanding of the relationship between resilience and female entrepreneurship in various contexts. In this sense, the 152 articles analyzed during the research constitute a valuable starting point for future investigations, evidencing the need to delve deeper into the analysis of resilience in the context of female entrepreneurship. Identifying and understanding these gaps in the scientific literature not only enriches the existing knowledge but also guides new research directions that contribute to the advancement and consolidation of this field of study. Consequently, resilience in female entrepreneurship not only acts as a driver for overcoming challenges but also plays a crucial role in building a more equitable and diverse business environment. The scientific evidence found during the systematic literature review is considered an essential component of promoting gender equality and diversity in the business sphere. In the abovementioned review, the relevance of factors such as resilience, self-efficacy, and support networks in the realm of female entrepreneurship is highlighted. These studies provide valuable perspectives that not only enrich existing knowledge but can also guide the development of policies and practices aimed at creating a more inclusive and equitable environment for female entrepreneurs. The interconnection between these elements underscores the importance of considering not only individual resilience but also the impact of external factors and support in fostering a more favorable business ecosystem for women.

“…From the perspective of upper‐echelons theory, females might have distinctive characteristics compared to men that allow them to improve the effectiveness of CSR and sustainability‐related initiatives (Orazalin, 2020). For example, their more communal characteristics (Njiwa et al, 2023), engagement with diverse range of functions (Yarram & Adapa, 2021), leadership styles (Galbreath, 2016; Pucheta‐Martínez & Gallego‐Álvarez, 2019), and moral reasoning (Nguyen & Thai, 2022) make them more likely to influence firms to increase their CSR investment and lead them to influence their prosocial actions. Empirically, Bear et al (2010) are among the few researchers who have worked on the hypothetical relationship between board gender diversity‐CSR‐firm reputation.…”

This paper examines corporate social responsibility (CSR) and advertising as two firm visibility channels and tests their complementarity/substitution. The study extends the investigation with moderating variables, including board gender diversity, CSR committees, and financial slack. Using a sample that includes 53,835 firm‐year observations worldwide associated with 10 business sectors from 2007 to 2019, we find that CSR performance is negatively associated with advertising; this holds for the aggregate CSR score as well as for environmental and social pillars but not for the governance pillar. This implies that two visibility channels—namely CSR and advertising—are substitutes except for the governance dimension. Furthermore, female directors do not advocate for the two visibility channels but instead are proponents of one, in line with the agency cost approach. However, CSR committees fully promote two communication channels supported by the composite and three individual pillars of CSR. Finally, financial slack matters in utilizing two publicity channels concurrently. The findings show that several contingencies must be taken into account to improve companies' visibility while avoiding exacerbating agency costs for better business management.
