Business Strategies of SMEs and Large Firms in Canada by Gilles McDougall,David Swimmer,Canada. Industry Canada Pdf
This research investigates the strategies for growth and competitiveness pursued by large firms and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to find out whether they differ and, if so, whether these differences can help identify problems specific to SMEs. In this study, business strategy is defined as all aspects of a firm's behaviour, including approaches to management, human resources, technology, investment, staff training, use of government programs, and sources of innovation.
