Smaller companies should play to their strengths: flexibility, speed and less hierarchy.

This report—written by The Economist Intelligence Unit and commissioned by American Express Global Business Travel—examines the hiring obstacles faced by medium-sized companies in five of the world’s biggest economies: Australia, Canada, France, the UK and US; it also looks at the strategies that companies are employing to overcome those obstacles. The report is based on analyses of these countries’ job markets, employment trends, populations and regulations, as well as on interviews with executives of medium-sized companies and industry experts.
