Canadian Entrepreneurship & Small Business Management is the result of many years of teaching entrepreneurship business classes at the college and university levels; of starting and managing several successful small businesses; and working closely with numerous owners of small businesses in a consulting role. The Canadian 2026 Release builds on the changes in previous editions, with an increased emphasis on currency, generating and maintaining student interest in the subject matter, and improving academic rigour.
Balderson draws on theory from the fields of entrepreneurship, small business management, and the major functional areas of business, including management, marketing, accounting, and finance. Theory is supported with hundreds of real-life business examples featured in boxes and opening profiles. These features have been carefully re-organized, streamlined, and selected to reflect the diversity of Canada and include a mix of both young, inspiring entrepreneurs and experienced, high-profile business owners. In addition, many boxes have become cases with thought-provoking discussion questions to generate student interest in the subject matter. Balderson now includes over 500 additional in-text examples about current business owners, trends in small business, and emerging topics in entrepreneurship.
