Download or read book Researching the Small Enterprise written by Phil Johnson and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2001-05-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there are plenty of books devoted to small business and management research, few give much attention to the small enterprise. This book focuses systematically on researching the small firm, from basic issues of definition, to selecting topics and research designs, to fieldwork problems, analysis data and finally, writing and presenting results. The discussion is set in the wider context of issues and problems in business research. Quantitative and especially qualitative approaches are explored and illustrated by drawing in depth on a wide range of research on the small enterprise. The result is an extensive resource book for researchers at all levels to draw upon in planning and conducting effective research.
Book Synopsis Small Firms in Tourism by : Rhodri Thomas
Download or read book Small Firms in Tourism written by Rhodri Thomas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a varied collection of recent research relating to small businesses in tourism. In doing so it reflects the eclecticism of interest and method associated with this under-researched and under-theorised area of investigation. Topics range from the potential contribution of small firms to achieving social or economic goals to understanding more about business performance and growth. As is common in tourism research, disciplinary boundaries are routinely transgressed in the interests of gaining greater illumination. Insights from a variety of countries are offered, sometimes as a result of trans-national collaboration initiated specifically for this book.

Book Synopsis Investigations of Non-vertical Collaborations by Small Firms by : Mengyang Pan
Download or read book Investigations of Non-vertical Collaborations by Small Firms written by Mengyang Pan and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small firms, a crucial segment of the US economy, face internal resource constraints that hinder their ability to survive and grow. Access to external resources through collaborations with external parties can be a viable way for small firms to overcome such constraints. While there is an abundance of literature examining vertical collaborations with customers or suppliers, non-vertical collaborations with external organizations have been under-investigated. In this dissertation, I investigate two types of non-vertical collaborations to generate insights for small firms trying to leverage external resources from non-vertical partners. The first type is collaboration with non-profit research institutions for research and development (R&D). While accessing outside resources through external R&D initiatives paves the path to commercialization, such external collaborations heighten the risk of intellectual property (IP) leaks as proprietary knowledge becomes shared. I examine how the decision to conduct R&D projects internally or externally is determined and the factors that affect subsequent commercialization success. My analyses suggest a small firm's R&D path decision depends on its previous success, as well as its competitors' success, but in opposite ways. I also find that possessing formal IP rights is not always beneficial. This counter-intuitive finding suggests an IP lockup problem during external R&D initiatives. The second type is collaborations with non-profit Business Membership Organizations (BMOs) to enable sales growth. Through a survey of 113 minority suppliers affiliated with a BMO, I find that minority suppliers can expand social networks with other minority-owned firms through participation in BMO-sponsored activities. Such participation in turn leads to greater sales growth. Moreover, participation in connect-oriented activities is more effective in expanding social networks with other minority-owned firms than participation in develop-oriented activities. Surprisingly, my analysis suggests expanding social networks with large buying corporations, through collaborations with BMOs, is generally not positively associated with sales growth, except for extremely young and small minority suppliers. Insights from this study provide practical suggestions to minority suppliers on how to participate wisely in BMO-sponsored activities for increased sales growth. Taken together, these two empirical studies highlight unique considerations for small firms engaging in non-vertical collaborations. Moreover, my studies demonstrate potential benefits and challenges of non-vertical collaborations for small firms that warrant more research.

Download or read book Enterprise, Entrepreneurship and Small Business written by Simon Down and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2010-03-18 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `A thoughtful and reflective account of "enterprise", offering meaningful and contextualized knowledge to students at all levels, written in a style that is as engaging as it is informative – and peppered with unobtrusive dry wit′ - Professor Sara Carter, OBE, Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship, University of Strathclyde Enterprise, Entrepreneurship and Small Business is an exciting new text for all students of business. Broad and inquisitive in its intellectual outlook, this provocative but accessible textbook covers core themes and topics in the study of enterprise, as well as looking at subjects that are often ignored, from criminal entrepreneurs and the demise of Enron, to ′entre-tainment′ and ethnic and indigenous entrepreneurship. Along the way, the reader will find an interactive exploration not only of the processes of entrepreneuring, of managing small enterprises, or of the implications of working in an entrepreneurial corporation - he or she will also be challenged to consider enterprise in its social, economic, political and moral contexts. This textbook moves beyond the narrow, prescriptive focus on the ′how′ employed by other textbooks, and places equal emphasis on the ′why′ - all the time considering the role of enterprise, entrepreneurship and small business in the world we live in. Supported by lively case studies, real-life examples and a concept guide of key terms, this text is ideal for undergraduate and postgraduate students on any course with an emphasis on enterprise and entrepreneurship.
