Intellectual capital and SMEs’ performance: A structured literature review
The role played by intellectual capital (IC) is crucial in the context of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Nonetheless, IC literature focusing on SMEs settings is limited and fragmented. This study provides a structured literature review (SLR) of existing evidence related to the effect of IC on SMEs performance. Findings show that strategic outcomes – such as innovation, knowledge management, and core competencies – and corporate performance of SMEs are impacted by IC. Further research could analyze the impact of IC on other determinants of SMEs’ performance such as learning organization, conversation management, and invisible assets

investigated the measurement of perceived managerial discretion. Our research aims
to validate the perceived managerial discretion construct through confirmatory
factor analysis of the data provided by 97 Italian healthcare managers. A principal
component analysis’s results indicate that two items in three performance management mechanisms are sufficient to measure the perceived managerial
discretion
