TLDR
In this article, the authors identify competitive strategies adopted by small firms and identify four types of competitive strategies in accordance with the Miles and Snow's (1978) model of the competitive strategies.Abstract:
The objective of this paper was to identify competitive strategies adopted by small firms. Miles and Snow's (1978) model of competitive strategies was used to classify reported strategic choices. Data were collected with 107 enterprises in the city of Londrina, PR, Brazil, belonging to 8 different business sectors. Results indicated that 4 types of competitive strategies were found in accordance with Miles and Snow's (1978) model. Companies' performance differed according to competitive strategies, that is, reactors were less effective in terms of growth, thus confirming one of the main model's propositions. The most frequent strategy was analytical. No differences were found that could be attributed to manager's gender.read more

Organizational Structure, Environment and Performance: The Role of Strategic Choice
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examine available theoretical models which have been derived from statistically established patterns of association between contextual and organizational variables, and argue that available models in fact attempt to explain organization at one remove by ignoring the essentially political process, whereby power-holders within organizations decide upon courses of strategic action.
