Abstract

Dada la importancia que tienen las PYMES en nuestro país es fundamental estudiar los factores que ayudan a las empresas a ser más competitivas en el ámbito nacional como internacional. En concreto, se analiza el impacto que tiene la orientación emprendedora en la capacidad de sobrevivencia y crecimiento de 126 pequeñas y medianas empresas manufactureras del occidente de México. Los resultados muestran que la capacidad de adaptación de las organizaciones a las condiciones del entorno es la principal variable que está relacionada con la sobrevivencia y crecimiento empresarial. La proactividad, la orientación al crecimiento y el desarrollo de nuevos productos resultaron variables que no generan ningún efecto en la capacidad de sobrevivencia y crecimiento de las PYMES.
