Abstract

Der anhaltende Gründungsboom geht einher mit einer wachsenden Zahl von Betriebsschließungen. Rein rechnerisch verschwindet jährlich jedes siebente Unternehmen vom Markt. Tatsächlich konzentriert sich diese Turbulenz auf Klein(st)- betriebe, vor allem aber auf Jungunternehmen. Existenzgründungen tragen somit zwar wesentlich zur Aufrechterhaltung hoher Beschäftigung im Strukturwandel bei. Ihr quantitativer Beschäftigungsbeitrag sollte jedoch nicht überschätzt, die qualitativen Beschäftigungsrisiken nicht unterschätzt werden. In der konventionellen Existenzgründungsförderung stehen Hilfen zur Überwindung betrieblicher Finanzierungsprobleme im Vordergrund. Finanzierungsengpässe sind jedoch häufig nur Anlaß, selten jedoch Ursache von Entwicklungsblockaden. Ausschlaggebend für Wachstumsschwächen und Existenzkrisen von Jungunternehmen sind zumeist Defizite in Managementkapazität und -kompetenz, die wiederum nicht selten auf eine unzureichende personalpolitische Unterfütterung der Unternehmensentwicklung zurückgehen: Viele durchaus erfolgsträchtige Jungunternehmen fangen personell zu klein an oder expandieren zu zögerlich, andere vergeuden das Qualifikationspotential ihrer Belegschaften durch unzureichende Schulung und unterwertigen Personaleinsatz. Die Studie begründet und entwickelt deshalb verschiedene Vorschläge, wie durch eine genuin arbeitsmarktpolitische Unterstützung die Unternehmensentwicklung von Existenzgründungen gestärkt und gleichzeitig deren beschäftigungspolitische Wirksamkeit erhöht werden könnte.
