A study of small and medium sized Canadian technology based companies / by R.M. Knight, J.C. Lemmon, School of Business Administration, the University of Western Ontario. : C54-1/57-1978E-PDF
"The purpose of this report is to investigate the level of management expertise in a sample of approximately fifty small and medium sized Canadian technology-based companies. Lack of management ability has been found to be a significant handicap to small businessmen in research conducted by both the authors and others. Canadian managers have often been accused of a general lack of management ability and sophistication, particularly in the areas of marketing and finance. This is considered to be a contributing factor to the failure of many Canadian companies to innovate and survive. Our study therefore investigated small and medium sized businesses in Canada to identify areas where management had problems and to recommend possible solutions to these problems, such as various types of formal educational programs"--Introduction and purpose of the study.
