"This article is based on an empirical survey performed by the Research Centre for Competitiveness of the Czech Economy in 2007. The survey covered a stratified sample of 432 Czech (mostly industrial) companies. The subject of the article is competitiveness of companies. We argue that competitiveness is a qualitative property of a company, which is reflected in its financial performance, assuming that the more able a company is to compete, the better performance it reaches. In that respect a high performing, efficient company will be qualitatively different from a low performing, inefficient one. In other words, it will have different parameters (characteristic features) of studied qualitative variables. The characteristics are based on the stakeholder model of the corporation used by Donaldson and Preston in which a corporation can be characterized from the point of view of various interest groups."@en . .
