TO Grow … or Not to Grow …?

Abstract

Or not to grow? Can this be a serious question? Is there a company that does not embrace growth as a principal objective? The thesis of this column is that in many companies, whether or not to grow is a serious strategic question which needs to be addressed by corporate directors. Too often, growth is accepted as an objective automatically, whether or not it is in the shareholders' best interests.
