| Abstract: | This paper examines the characteristics of entrepreneurs in a representative sample of 59 management buy-ins. The average size of the buy-ins is 147 employees, with a median of 63 employees. Three clusters of buy-in entrepreneurs are identified - "push", "independence-draftsmen" and "opportunist". No significant differences in performance were identified between the clusters although "opportunists" were more likely to undertake post buy-in acquisitions. |
