The paper’s purpose is to add to the body of knowledge on strategy implementation by systematically studying the activities for and obstacles to strategy execution on a sample of 172 Slovenian companies. The results show that managers mostly rely on planning and organising activities when...

The process of competition between firms can be described as a causalconsecutive sequence. The paper is built on the findings of empirical research based on a sample of 225 Slovenian firms. By using statistical methods we examine which approaches firms use to ensure their competitiveness and,...

The overwhelming empirical evidence suggests that, from the acquirer’s perspective, acquisitions are mostly at best “break-even” situations and at worst failures. Our study seeks to contribute to this pool of knowledge by analysing the performance of horizontal acquisitions. We examined...

The purpose of this paper is to examine the factors that influenced the performance of acquisitions in Slovenia. The empirical research methodology is based on qualitative part (interviews by using questionnaire) and quantitative part (descriptive statistics, correlation, regression model). In...
