Para isto, efetuou-se uma revisão bibliográfica visando avaliar o que já havia sido discutido em relação a indicadores de desempenho em empreendedorismo e estratégia empresarial. Esta revisão resultou em um conjunto de 27 indicadores testados na base de empresas inscritas no Prêmio Empreendedor de Sucesso 2009. As respostas às 27 questões foram submetidas a uma análise fatorial exploratória e a uma análise fatorial confirmatória para verificar as dimensões propostas. Esta análise confirmou a existência de seis dimensões para o desempenho de PMEs, sendo elas: Crescimento, Lucratividade, Clientes/Mercado, Pessoas, Sociedade e Meio Ambiente. Esta resposta corrobora a teoria dos stakeholders, na qual todos os atores ligados a uma organização, que colocam seus recursos em prol dela, devem buscar algum tipo de compensação. A análise dos pesos do painel de juízes revelou que as dimensões econômico-finaceiras Lucratividade e Crescimento têm os maiores pesos, com 17% e 26%, respectivamente, mostrando a grande preocupação na satisfação dos investidores. A dimensão Clientes também possui um peso alto e representa 26% na percepção dos entrevistados, demonstrando a necessidade de que a empresa que satisfaça as necessidades de seus clientes. A dimensão Pessoas tem um peso ainda alto, representando 17%. Isto demonstra a importância que os empregados têm para o sucesso de uma organização. Em último lugar, com apenas 6% cada uma, aparecem as dimensões Sociedade e Meio Ambiente. Espera-se que a equação resultante destes pesos possa ser útil para empreendedores se guiarem na condução de seus negócios, bancos realizarem análise de crédito e investidores (venture capitalists) realizarem a avaliação de empresas (due dilligence). / This thesis studies the dimensions of organizational performance in small and medium businesses (SMEs) and considers the weight given by a panel of experts for each dimension of performance. First, a literature review was performed to evaluate what had been discussed in relation to performance analysis in entrepreneurship and business strategy. This review resulted in a set of 27 indicators tested a sample of companies listed in the Prêmio Empreendedor de Sucesso 2009. The answers to this survey were submitted to an exploratory factor analysis and a confirmatory factor analysis to check the dimensions proposed. This research confirmed the existence of six dimensions to the performance of SMEs, namely: Growth, Profitability, Customer/Market, People, Society and Environment. This response confirms the theory of stakeholders, in which all the players connected to an organization, that put their resources in favor of it, should get some sort of compensation. The analysis of the weights given by the panel of experts found that the economic-financial dimension 'Profitability' and 'Growth' have significant weight, 17% and 26% respectively, indicating great concern in the satisfaction of investors. The dimension 'Customer/Market' also has a high weight of 26% in the perception of respondents, demonstrating the need for the company to meet the needs of its customers. Dimension 'People' is also high, accounting for 17%. This reveals the importance that employees have for the success of an organization. Finally, with only 6% each, the dimensions 'Society' and 'Environment' appears. It is expected that the resulting equation of weights may be useful in guiding entrepreneurs to conduct their business, banks to perform credit analysis and investors (venture capitalists) to carry out due diligence.
