Fakulteta za management V članku predstavljamo raziskavo, izvedeno v okviru magistrske nalo-
ana.arzensek@fm-kp.si ge, v kateri smo raziskali odzive izbranih slovenskih podjetnic na stres
v času krize zaradi pandemije covida-19. V raziskavi smo se osredotočili
na miselnost o stresu in ugotavljali, kako so se podjetnice spoprijele s
stresom v tem obdobju ter kakšne posledice je imela izkušnja stresa v
času krize za njihovo osebno in poslovno življenje. S subjektivnim vzor-
čenjem smo v raziskavo vključili 12 podjetnic, ki kot samostojne podjet-
nice ali podjetnice mikropodjetij upravljajo svoje podjetje pet let ali več
ter so članice ene izmed skupnosti podjetnic. Izbrali smo kvalitativno
metodologijo in izvedli polstrukturirane individualne intervjuje. Rezul-
tati raziskave kažejo, da so se podjetnice v času pandemije covida-19 s
stresom spoprijele predvsem s čuječnostjo in preživljanjem časa v naravi
ter spremembo načina dela in preoblikovanjem poslovanja. Stres v času
krize je deloval kot katalizator sprememb, ki so privedle do osebne rasti,
izboljšanja poslovnih praks in krepitve socialnih odnosov, k čemur pa sta
v veliki meri prispevali tudi podjetniška razvojna miselnost podjetnic in
njihova osebna odgovornost.

Response of Selected Slovenian Businesswomen
to Stress during the COVID-19 Crisis
In the article, we present the research carried out as part of a master's
thesis, in which we investigated the responses of selected Slovenian fe-
male entrepreneurs to stress during the COviD-19 pandemic crisis. We
have focused on the stress mindset and examined how the female entre-
preneurs coped with stress during this period of time, as well as the con-
sequences that the experience of stress during the crisis had on their per-
sonal and business lives. Using subjective sampling, we included twelve
female entrepreneurs who have been managing their own business as
self-employed or micro-enterprise entrepreneurs for five years or more
and are members of one of the female entrepreneurs' communities. We
chose a qualitative methodology and conducted semi-structured indi-
vidual interviews. The research findings show that female entrepreneurs
coped with stress mainly through mindfulness and spending time in na-
ture, as well as by changing their work methods and restructuring their
businesses. Stress during the crisis acted as a catalyst for changes that led
to personal growth, improved business practices and strengthened social
relationships, significantly aided by the entrepreneurial growth mindset
of the female entrepreneurs and their personal responsibilities.
