Abstract

Entrepreneurship and leadership are enacted as examples of practice and taken on as forms of identity; they are also both understood to be gendered constructions. The paper explores how entrepreneurial leadership is enacted by a female entrepreneur over time and how being a leader is integrated into entrepreneurial identity development via gendered identity work. The empirical foundation of the paper is a longitudinal case study of a ew ealand female entrepreneur that is informed by primary data spanning almost a decade (2005–2014). The data were collected via multiple, in‐depth, narrative interviews and analyzed using the framework of interpretative phenomenological analysis.
