Respondents were senior management executives at organizations with annual revenues between $20 and $250 million in the following industries: retail, manufacturing, distribution, nonprofits/associations, professional services, healthcare, education, construction, real estate and banking. The national survey yielded responses from 52 senior management executives who lead middle market organizations.
