Entrepreneurship,resistance to change and growth in small firms
Colin Gray
Managerial and policy implications Policy makers and SME support 代写英国论文agenciesshould look more closely at how small firms perceive risk and the effects ofuncertainty on SME behaviour.More attention should be paid toconfidence building and structuralsupport for existing firms rather thanfocussing on new product innovation bystart-ups.There is a case for supporting existingfirms that are early adopters of changeand technology in boosting their salesrather than focussing on employmenteffects.IntroductionAlthough the term ‘‘entrepreneur’’ hasattracted scores of different definitions, thisarticle uses it to refer to individuals whomanage a business with the intention ofexpanding that business and with theleadership and managerial capabilities forachieving their goals. In the tradition ofSchumpeter (1934), entrepreneurs are seen asthe small business owner-managers who keepahead of competitors through bettermanagement and the introduction of new,innovative products and processes. Althoughpolicy has focused on fresh start-ups, manyfeel that existing SMEs offer the best scopefor innovation and sustained employment(Storey, 1994). It is fair to say that the startupphase in a firm’s life cycle is generallyentrepreneurial but there needs to be asustained progression from that phase if thefirm is to survive and prosper (Flamholtz,1986).The re-assessment of the role of small firmsin the sustainable development of a soundand growing economy dates back in the UKsome 30 years ago to the publication of theBolton (1971) report. Since then, variousConservative and Labour governments haveemphasised different features of the small andmedium enterprise (SME) sector as theyformulated and justified their small businesspolicies. Generally, there have been two mainthemes (which have not always beencompatible):(1) social policy, where the small firm is seenas a creator of new jobs and absorber ofunemployment; andThe authorColin Gray is Head, Centre for Innovation, Knowledgeand Enterprise, Open University Business School,Milton Keynes, UK.KeywordsEntrepreneurs, Small firms, Innovation, GrowthAbstractThe focus of this paper is on existing small firms, withfewer than 50 employees, and their attitudes to change,using data from regular quarterly small firm surveysconducted by the Small Business Research Trust,especially from the 1,212 respondents to the fourthquarter of 1999 (15:4, motivation, objectives and targets)and the 812 respondents to the first quarter 2000 survey(16:1, changes). The overlap between the respondents tothese successive surveys allows their responses to becross-tabulated. It was expected that there would bestrong positive links between growth-orientation, thesetting of financial objectives (as opposed to lifestylegoals), propensity to introduce changes and actualgrowth, and that age and size of firm effects will also bepresent and likely, as intervening variables, to influencethese relationships. The findings confirm theseexpectations (and the mirror image of resistance tochange linked to non-entrepreneurial performance).Electronic accessThe current issue and full text archive of this journal isavailable athttps://www.emeraldinsight.com/1462-6004.htm61Journal of Small Business and Enterprise DevelopmentVolume 9 .
