How Fast Should Your Company Really Grow?
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=105300&nl=daily no
issue attracts more senior leadership attention than growth does. And
for good reason. Growth—in revenues and profits—is the yardstick
by which we tend to measure the competitive fitness and health of
companies and determine the quality and compensation of its
management. Analysts, investors, and boards pepper CEOs about growth
prospects to get insight into stock prices. Employees are attracted to
faster-growing companies because they offer better opportunities for
advancement, higher pay, and greater job security. Suppliers prefer
faster-growing customers because working with them improves their own
growth prospects. Given the choice, most companies and their
stakeholders would choose faster growth over slower growth.

While sustained profitable growth is a nearly universal goal, it is an
elusive one for many companies. Empirical research that I and others
have conducted on the long-term patterns of growth in U.S.
corporations suggests that when inflation is taken into account, most
companies barely grow. For instance, in an analysis of 10,897 publicly
held U.S. companies from 1976 to 2019, my research associate Catherine
Piner and I found that firms in the top quartile grew at an
inflation-adjusted average of 11.8% per year, but those in the lower
three quartiles experienced little or no growth (0.3%, 0.03%, and
-0.5%, respectively). And the majority of firms in the top quartile
were unable to sustain superior growth performance for more than a few
years. Although challenging to achieve, sustained profitable growth is
not impossible, however. In our analysis, we found that only about 15%
of the companies in the top growth quartile in 1985 were able to
sustain their top-quartile performance for at least 30 years.
