Připravují se malé organizace na krizi?

Článek prezentuje některé výsledky výzkumu provedeného v roce 2011. Výzkum byl zaměřen na vztah malých organizací k prevenci krizí. Cílem bylo zjistit, do jaké míry se malé organizace připravují na krize. Výsledkem prezentované části výzkumu je identifikace dvou strategií přípravy na krize. První je zaměřena na tvorbu a aktualizace a k okolí tak, aby si vybudovala jejich loajalitu. Přípravu na krizi nejčastěji komplikoval nedostatek financí, což se dalo u malých organizací očekávat, ale také byl deklarován nedostatek času manažerů prevencí se zabývat. Ze statisticky zpracovaných dat získaných empirickým výzkumem došli autoři k závěru, že, i když řada malých organizací zná své slabé stránky i vnější ohrožení a snaží se zavádět preventivní opatření, stále se příprava na potenciální krize nestává běžnou součástí manažerské práce a není doceněna jako rys konkurenceschopnosti. Ve výzkumu byly využity statistické nástroje korelační a faktorové analýzy.

Do Small Enterprises Prepare for Crisis?

This paper presents some results of research carried out in 2011. The research was focused on the relationship of small organizations to crises prevention. The aim was to determine the extent to which small organizations prepare for crisis. The result of presented part of research is identification of two crisis prevention strategies. The first strategy is focused on creating and updating a crisis plan and crisis team. The second one is based on appropriate behaviour to employees and surroundings so that the organizations build up their loyalty. Preparation for the crisis is most complicated by financing gap, which could be expected in small organizations and also managers declared a lack of time to prevention entertain. By the statistically processed data obtained by empirical research, the authors came to the conclusion that, although many small organizations know their weaknesses and external threats and trying to take precautionary measures, the preparing for a potential crisis still does not become a normal part of managerial work and it is not appreciated as a feature of competitiveness. The correlation analysis and factor analysis statistical tools were used for the research.
