| Abstract: | A qualitative study was based on in-depth interviews with 21 Christian (henceforth as: Ch.) SME owner-managers in Germany and the United Kingdom (UK). Using a socio-psychological approach, the data analysis produced a set of linguistic and conceptual resources typical to Ch. discourse, potentially influencing business activity. This study focuses especially on those Ch. concepts that could be seen as distinct 'frames' for action. It is outlined what effect these concepts had on the respondents and how they were related to business practices. |
