SMEs normally have difficulty attracting highly motivated managers because of the fierce competition with large companies on the labor market for such skilled and talented personnel. This has to do with the quality of management. Also, SMEs are not able to afford the high cost of training and advisory services while others do not see the need to upgrade their skills. In terms of technology, SMEs often have difficulties in gaining access to appropriate technologies and information on available techniques (Aryeetey et al., 1994).
