Abstract: Corporate growth has evolved into a challenge of undisputable and increasing interest among senior managers, in particular, after the bursting of the stockmarket bubble. Nevertheless, the available theories of corporate growth (resources, life-cycle, etc.) tend to focus on only one dimension of the growth process. In this paper1, we argue why corporate growth is important, introduce the need for a more holistic view of corporate growth and discuss the drivers that growing firms use to keep growth going.
