Description:

Strategies for Growth in SMEs explores for the first time the role of information and information systems (IS) concepts in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Most IS research focuses on large firms, yet the majority of firms in most economies are SMEs. The book considers the applicability of IS theory and practice to SMEs and develops new theories that are relevant to these firms.

Composed of 6 sections, it covers, amongst other things; the nature of SMEs, the background to IS, and SMEs' use of IS, issues of IS strategy and planning in SMEs, the way that firms can transform through use of IS, evaluation, IS flexibility, business process re-engineering, resource-based strategy and knowledge management, the appropriateness of existing theories and the development of new models to address SME-specific issues. The final section of the book reviews the learning in the previous chapters and poses future agendas for research.

Written by two of the leading figures in the field, this book will be essential reading for researchers in IS and SMEs, students on entrepreneurship or IS courses, and others that focus on SMEs.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

描述:
《中小企業成長策略》首次探討了信息和信息系統(IS)概念在中小企業(SMEs)中的作用。大多數IS研究都集中在大型企業上,然而大多數經濟體中的企業都是中小企業。本書考慮了IS理論和實踐對中小企業的適用性,並發展了與這些企業相關的新理論。

本書由6個部分組成,包括中小企業的性質,IS的背景以及中小企業對IS的使用,中小企業的IS戰略和規劃問題,企業如何通過使用IS進行轉型,評估、IS靈活性、業務流程再造、基於資源的戰略和知識管理,現有理論的適用性以及開發新模型以應對中小企業特定問題。本書的最後一部分回顧了前幾章的學習成果,並提出了未來的研究議程。

本書由該領域的兩位領先人物撰寫,對IS和中小企業的研究人員、創業或IS課程的學生以及關注中小企業的其他人來說,這本書是必讀之作。
