Abstract
Firm size is found to affect strategic decisions significantly, whereas technology and market stability stimulate product development and innovation. An innovation strategy seems to be the only grand strategy that guarantees high short- and long-term performance. Concentrated growth, market, and product development foster long-term performance. The traditional top-down management approach in high-technology SMEs does not require formal strategic planning for implementation of strategies.
