| Tiivistelmä: | In this study the authors research the impacts, antecedents and outcomes of formal strategic networking among small businesses in small communities to enhance their business success. The authors conducted interviews with small business network leaders and members and the data gathered from these interviews was analyzed to identify five theoretical constructs and the possible connection within those constructs. In addition quantitative data was gathered from 377 phone interviews with small business owners located in four Midwest states. The findings of EQS modeling indicate that shared vision and resource sharing with network members remarkably benefited their businesses, and these benefits were related with a generalized perception of the advantages of being part of the network and strengthened members´ future participation plans, therefore raising the probability of network continuity. |
