In light of different attempts in the economic literature, this paper will compare, using Canadian data, three approaches measuring high-growth enterprises based on employment: one developed jointly by the Organisation for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD) and Eurostat, another one introduced by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), and one more based on a top decile approach measured in terms of a compound annual growth rate of employment. This paper will subsequently test the relationship between the definitions of these high-growth enterprises and the sales compound annual growth rate in order to assess in a different way the impact that high-growth enterprises have on economic performance and to see how the different measures relate to one another. By contrasting different approaches to defining high-growth enterprises, this study offers a comparative context allowing for the coverage of all size classes including micro-enterprises, while, at the same time, assessing the dynamic impact of growth across enterprise size and sector. Such an approach may be of particular interest to policy-makers who want to know which type of enterprise is experiencing growth during various economic cycles and within a national context"--Abstract, p. ii. gccst Businesses gccst Business development gccst Statistical analysis Rosa, Julio Miguel.
