Midsize companies enjoy unique strengths over their larger counterparts — they typically have a sharper focus, greater agility to respond to market needs, and a tighter relationship with their customers, employees, and suppliers. But the existence of these advantages isn’t enough. To succeed, midsize companies need to convert these strengths into sustained competitive edge.
Most midsize companies offer a narrower range of products and services than larger companies do.
