ABSTRACT: This article provides empirical evidence for the relationship between the market orientation, entrepreneurial orientation, and collaboration of external actors in the processes of incremental and radical innovations in rural enterprises. The research tested two sets of assumptions: first, the relation between contributions of strategic orientation and innovation processes; and second, collaborations of external stakeholders in the implementation of innovation processes. Data were collected from 208 rural enterprises and analyzed with the use of techniques of partial least squares structural equation modeling. Results showed that the market orientation contributes to the development of incremental innovation, and that the entrepreneurial orientation contributes to the implementation of the incremental and radical innovations. Specific agents (buyers, suppliers of goods and services, consultants, and others producers), collaborate positively in implementing incremental innovation; however, generic agents do not. The generic agents (universities and specialized public organizations) are the ones that most intervene in radical innovations. The use of consistent theory in the areas of strategy, marketing and management in identifying that some of their causal relationships are confirmed for rural businesses unlike others, due to the structure of the market and the products produced by them.

The Relationship

PurposeThe purpose of this article is to study the moderating effect of absorptive capacity, defined as the set of organizational routines and processes through which companies acquire, assimilate, transform and exploit knowledge to produce a dynamic organizational capacity (Zahra and George, 2002), in three strategic orientations: market orientation; technology orientation and entrepreneurial orientation and their positive relationship in the performance of the medium and large Mexican manufacturing firms. Likewise, it is determined whether these three combined SOs influence firm performance.Design/methodology/approachThe data was collected from 171 medium and large-sized Mexican manufacturing firms. The proposed hypotheses are tested using partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).FindingsDespite the importance of knowledge for the development of firms, the results indicate that the moderating effect of absorptive capacity is only present in the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and firm performance. That is, firms cannot take advantage of knowledge simultaneously between the three strategic orientations. For their part, market orientation and entrepreneurial orientation exert a positive influence on firm performance.Practical implicationsThe main practical implication for the manufacturing industry is that they must develop mechanisms to detect what kind of knowledge affects each strategic orientation, in this way it can make the absorptive capacity influence the relationships between SO and FP.Originality/valueThe main contribution consists of studying the moderating effect of the absorptive capacity on the relationship between three strategic orientations and firm performance, and not concentrating solely on the simultaneous use of these strategies as is commonly done.

AbstractEntrepreneurship orientation is a fundamental topic both in entrepreneurship and in management that has a critical role in the development of the firm. The purpose of this paper is to study the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and firm growth, specifically, how entrepreneurial leadership and market orientation mediate the relationship between EO and firm growth. The population of this study is agricultural small- and medium-sized enterprises (ASMEs) across Tehran Province. The survey instrument is questionnaires that were sent to 240 owners and/or top managers of ASMEs as a sample. Validity of the questionnaires has been verified in two ways of face and construct, and its reliability has been verified using Cronbach’s alpha. The collected data has been analyzed by using the structural equation modeling. The results reveal that EO significantly influences firm growth in ASMEs. Notably, entrepreneurial leadership (EL) and market orientation (MO) perform a mediating role in the relationships between EO and firm’s growth in ASMEs.

Postharvest Handling

The problem of Muntok Pepper business performance continues to decline due to the inability of farmers to face price uncertainty, recognize and understand market conditions. The fact is that the number of business actors continues to grow. Competing to face changes in the business environment is necessary, so entrepreneurial farmers are needed. This study aims to look at the postharvest process carried out by Muntok Pepper farmers and analyze whether entrepreneurial orientation and market orientation are determinant factors that affect the postharvest handling process. The research method used a survey method involving 60 farmers. Using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), data analysis was carried out using smart Partial Least Squares (PLS). The results showed that the postharvest handling process was significantly influenced by entrepreneurial orientation and market orientation, but entrepreneurial orientation influence was greater than market orientation. Farmers carry out postharvest handling of Muntok Pepper in two stages. 50% of farmers carry out threshing, soaking, and drying processes. 50% of farmers do not do the sorting, grading, and milling process. Farmers’ decisions in postharvest handling are more influenced by the influence of the entrepreneurial orientation of farmers. Farmers who are motivated to excel, dare to take risks, and are willing to innovate by using new production methods tend to carry out a good postharvest handling process, not only threshing, soaking, and drying but also sort and process pepper derivative products.

This study examined the effect of environmental factors, entrepreneurial orientation, and market orientation on profitability in small business. In this study, we consider two dimensions of external environment: technological turbulence and competitive intensity. Theoretically, technological turbulence, competitive intensity, and entrepreneurial orientation are correlated, but distinct construct. Data was processed with Structural Equation Modeling using AMOS program. The results showed that technological turbulence has no direct effect on market orientation, but competitive intensity proved to have significant impact on market orientation. Entrepreneurial orientation has a direct effect and an indirect effect on profitability mediated by market orientation. The result also showed that market orientation proved to have significant impact on profitability. Based on the results, this study suggest, at least in small firms, competitive intensity and entrepreneurial orientation complements market orientation by instilling an opportunistic culture that impacts the profitability.Keywords: technological turbulence, competitive intensity, entrepreneurial orientation, market orientation, and profitability.

The main objective of this study is to examine the moderating role of environmental uncertainties on the relationships between entrepreneurial orientation (EO) being innovativeness, risk-taking, and pro-activeness and performance of childcare centres in Malaysia. Data were collected from the childcare centres operating in the whole of Malaysia using a quantitative survey design. The study adopted a cluster sampling, respondents were selected from the population of 3,490 childcare centres in Malaysia, and questionnaires were distributed through the postal method and online survey method. A total of 117 usable questionnaires were returned, giving a response rate of 29.7%. Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to test the study hypotheses. The findings revealed that Entrepreneurial orientations are important strategic orientations for the performance of childcare centres in Malaysia. The findings of the study supported the hypothesized positive relationship between innovativeness and pro-activeness to business success but no relationship between risk-taking and business success. For the moderating effect, perceived environmental uncertainties were found to have a moderating effect on innovativeness but not to risk-taking and pro-activeness. The findings of this study provide important insights to owners/managers of childcare centres in Malaysia, policymakers, and researchers to further understand the effects of EO on the performance of childcare centres in Malaysia. Owners in the childcare centres in Malaysia should also be encouraged to improve their entrepreneur orientation which may increase their performances. Finally, the study implications, limitations as well suggestions for future research are discussed.
