Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Operations Research, course: PhD Commerce, language: English, abstract: This research was carried out with the objective of establishing the challenges faced by small and medium scale entrepreneurs in their efforts to adopt strategic management in their value chains. A review of relevant literature revealed that strategic management is a very important approach that all businesses need, no matter their size, in order to enhance effectiveness. It is known to support professionalism, profitability and sustainable value addition when applied according to best practice. Quantitative and qualitative approaches to data gathering were applied to enable the researcher to establish a richer picture of the exact situation on the ground. Quantitative data were collected from a sample of 292 respondents while qualitative data were obtained from a sample of 127 key informants and stakeholders. Drawing inspiration from the survival strategies of the chameleon, the researcher postulated the Chameleon Survival Strategy Model for small and medium-scale enterprises. The model was then used as a benchmark in the analysis of quantitative data, which were treated using the statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) and qualitative data, which were content analysed. The chameleon survival strategy was used as the standard to assess the extent to which small and medium scale enterprises were compliant with the fundamentals of strategic management as exhibited by the chameleon in its environment. The key findings were that SMEs failed the Chameleon Survival Strategy Model test, based on the overall value of the model's index obtained after data analysis. It was observed that SMEs did not practice strategic management and were therefore not consistent with the chameleon survival strategies, outlined in the model's seven attributes. The conclusions drawn, recommendations and implications of th

While most entrepreneurs around the globe acknowledge that they began their businesses either as a hobby or a secondary source of income, the mushrooming of SMEs in Zimbabwe has been prompted by unprecedented company closures which saw many workers losing their jobs. SMEs occupy a central position in solving socio - economic problems such as unemployment and poverty, especially in developing countries. For most Zimbabweans, SMEs have become the major source of livelihood. SMEs sector - led growth has been touted the world over as the stepping-stone for industrialization. Developed economies such as the United States of American, Japan, Switzerland, China, Australia and the United Kingdom trace their development from growth and development of their SMEs. Owing to the importance and place of SMEs in any economy, it is imperative that the SMEs sector in Zimbabwe should get the attention it deserves. Understanding of why some SMEs succeed while others fail is essential for the stability and health of the economy of Zimbabwe. Developing a deeper understanding of SMEs in Zimbabwe can never be complete without recognition of CSFs. Despite this fact, CSFs for SMEs in Zimbabwe have not been studied. The paper is motivated by an urgent need to develop a common framework of the CSFs for SMEs in Zimbabwe. The purpose of this paper is to unbundle the SMEs CSFs through Systematic Literature Review (SLR) and a special reference to Zimbabwe is made. The proposed 3E conceptual model depicts that the success of SMEs in Zimbabwe largely depends on enterprise factors (e.g technology, marketing and management skills), environmental factors (e.g social networks and government & financial support) and entrepreneurial factors (e.g gender, age of owner, education level and availability of capital). The model guides entrepreneurs in shifting their attention from numerous & unnecessary factors and helps them focus on SMEs CSFs.

Innovation has many enablers that are related to both internal and external environments. The internal environment covers the company's operations, market strategy and vision, skills, creativity, and quest for innovation, among others. This paper investigated opportunities and challenges for Micro-Small to Medium Enterprises in Zimbabwe to successfully emerge as agents of economic development through innovation. The analysis includes the personal characteristics that make up MSMEs as well as the contemporary environments in which MSMEs operate. This paper is grounded on Schumpeter's notion that entrepreneurship contributes to economic development through the interplay of new firm creation, innovation and competition. The study adopted a case study research design as Bulawayo was utilized as the case in Zimbabwe. Purposive sampling was utilized in identifying study participants for focus group discussions and random sampling was utilized in identifying 142 respondents for questionnaires. The study's findings revealed that the MSME's sector is motivated to innovate so as to improve the way and speed in products formation. Interactions and multiple social networks are also established in the MSMEs sector in the process of innovation based on kinship, friendship ties and manufacturer- client relationship. The MSMEs studied focused on adapting, imitating and modifying existing innovations rather than pursuing genuine Schumpeterian innovation. The study notes that innovation is happening but it is not a priority for the MSME sector and therefore policies aimed at catching up with modern technology should be the central focus in providing assistance for entrepreneurs and these are suggested in this paper. The results also revealed that while economic profit is a priority for most entrepreneurs, MSMEs exists mainly to alleviate poverty through income generating activities and contribute to economic development by providing employment and income for the poor. The study concludes that innovation is a results of demand driven synergies which are prevalent in the society and the MSMEs' sector skills and knowledge, which therefore means that there are many opportunities to be tapped but however there is lack of investment and robust policy which need to be unlocked. The study recommends that innovations in the MSMES' sector need a holistic attention from stakeholders of the country's industrialization plans not to be merely seen as rhetoric and politicking. Modernization and technology upgrading along with innovative methods of capacity building and marketing of products are necessary. A holistic innovation policy for the MSME sector can also be made to promote innovation. The policy, institutions, and supporting framework have to be improved to remove MSMEs' perception that government is limiting their success. Over time, this can be done with the proactive participation of experts and policy makers to benefit Zimbabwe's MSMEs.
