An empirical exploration of corporate entrepreneurial orientation and performance in Taiwanese SMEs: a perspective of multidimensional construct

摘要

Based on the multidimensional construct, we proposed a mode of entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and firm performance in a sample of Taiwanese small-to-medium-sized enterprise firms. Using survey data from 267 firms, we reached the following conclusions in this paper: (1) Innovativeness positively affects firm performance. (2) Proactiveness is positively related to firm performance. (3) Risk-taking is positively related to firm performance. Overall, the EO is positively related to the firm's performance.View full textDownload full textKeywordsentrepreneurship orientation, innovativeness, proactiveness, risk-taking, performanceRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; var addthis_config = {"data_track_addressbar":true,"ui_click":true}; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/14783363.2012.670917
