     summary: However, the impact of each of the four dimensions of transformational leadership on employee organizational commitment has yet to be adequately researched, particularly in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the United States. Each of the four dimensions of transformational leadership may have a different impact on employee organizational commitment, and this information can be critical to SMEs seeking to improve leadership effectiveness.

     summary: In 1997, the federal government assigned an annual goal to the Small Business Administration (SBA) to award at least 23% of federal contracts to small businesses (Schilling et al., 2017), with 5% specifically set aside for 8(a)-certified firms. While these goals have been met in some years (SBA, 2019), the complex, lengthy, and costly federal contracting bidding processes create challenges and barriers for small businesses owned by socially or economically disadvantaged principals.

Discussion Concerning the discussions on organizational strategic responses, an interesting result was that the predominance of study participants (all except P5) described the process in terms of both autonomous or bottom-up meetings and plans and induced or top-down meetings and plans.
