The Five Stages Of Growing A Small Business
Small businesses, characterised by independence of action, differing organisational structures and management styles, vary in size and capacity for growth. They, however, experience similar problems arising from their stages of development. Their similarities can be organised into a framework that highlights the common challenges that they face and the opportunities available to them, irrespective of the sectors they belong or industries in which they operate. The resulting understanding can help owners and managers in diagnosing problems and anticipating the key requirements at various points in the life of the business.
How do you develop a framework that is relevant for the growth of your small business, as dictated by the stage of its growth?
