| Abstract: | The paper explores the ways in which the characteristics of the owner-managers of small companies influence whether or not those companies have a business plan. The focus is mainly on antecedent influences on owner-managers such as education and prior experience. Data are drawn from a survey of the owner-managers of small metalworking companies in Sheffield, UK. Around half the sample of owner-managers possess a business plan. |
