My Applied Research Project is a study into small businesses and determining the best strategy for success. I am a partner in our small aviation business (<25 employees) and I have tried to have a set business structure in place for the organization to follow and it seems to be more of a hinderance. I have found that we need to be more nimble and flexible so we have a general plan in place with the ability to change that quickly if we find something that isnt working. Larger businesses and corporations have the ability to have a very set in stone business plan with little deviation. I am currently setting up the structure and outline of the research project. I am also working on a succinct problem statement.
