Title | The investment decision-making process in small manufacturing enterprises: the case of the printing and clothing industries in UK |
Authors | Ekanem, I. |
Abstract | This study is concerned with the investment decision making process in small manufacturing enterprises in the printing and clothing industries. The focus is on the actual decision-making behaviour of owner-managers, using 'Insider accounts' as a qualitative methodology which involves in-depth, semi-structured interviews and direct observation, conducted longitudinally in 8 case study companies. It is a research method which includes detailed accounts from the actors themselves, incorporating the actual motives and behaviour of owner-managers based on the philosophy that the 'objects' studied are in fact 'subjects', who produce accounts of their world. |
