The study involves the development and application of a competency-based framework in small businesses in Fiji. A survey approach was used in collecting the information for this study using face-to-face interviews with the owners/managers. The information collected was used to prepare 18 case studies of small businesses in Fiji. These case studies are the basis of our findings. The findings led to five strategies being proposed for possible consideration by small businesses for the improvement of their performance. The study concludes that small business managers in Fiji need to become more strategically oriented; implement business performance measures, manage risk and uncertainty; implement more sophisticated systems and procedures and become more aware of regulatory stipulations.
