The purpose of the study was to find out what kind of impact strategic management has on the growth of profitability. Entrepreneurs＇ financial and strategic objectives were studied, as well as growth strategies and their implications. Studied companies were all located in Finland. The research material was collected by personal interviews in 2008 from 23 entrepreneurs. Their financial statements from 2001 to 2007 were also taken into account. The study found that the role of management seems to be crucial in profitable growth and much more meaningful than, for example, the financial situation. Strategic objectives and chosen growth strategy seem especially to be key elements for successful growth. Particularly in low profit sectors, management should not focus growth purely on current conditions, but also on seeking other ways to exploit the company＇s resources.展开更多
