The study examines the relationships among entrepreneurial orientation, market orientation and networking on firm performance with radical and incremental innovation as the mediator. The present study draws on the resource-based view theory to provide insights about intangible resources and capabilities among SMEs. The study adopts a subjectivist approach and is based on multiple case study method by conducting interviews with 7 SMEs purposively operating in different sectors. The research findings seem to support both proactive and responsive market orientation (PMO, RMO), entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and networking have positive relationships on firm performance with radical and incremental innovation as the mediator. It appears firms initiating radical innovation take longer for new product performance because of lack of information about customer needs in the market but networking assists in providing market information that enables commercialization of new products. Further, networking among firms drives performance while strong ties are practiced to a lesser extent.

Research Findings

Post-training evaluation has received attention, but for basic training (latsar) for CPNS lecturers are still rare, especially those that focus on evaluating the quality commitment of lecturers and escorting after returning to campus. The study uses the case study method, it aims to find out the form of quality commitment along with the escort, maintenance and improvement of post-CPNS public university lecturers.Data were collected from nine subject groups. Each group consisted of one returned lecturer, one colleague, one mentor, and several students. The focus of each group is on the assessment of the commitment to quality, maintenance, and improvement of the returned lecturer, as well as the form of supervision carried out by the mentor. The research findings show that returned lecturers have not been fully sustainable in realizing the commitment to quality for aspects of teaching, research and community service. Meanwhile, related to maintenance and improvement of quality, it is known that there are efforts from lecturers on the basis of their own initiative to maintain and improve quality. Meanwhile, the supervision carried out by universities is still lacking. This research contributes to the knowledge and development of basic training by providing what aspects still have to be added to the program to improve the commitment to quality and supervision of the lecturer after the training.Keywords: basic training, post training evaluation, commitment to quality, lecturer.

Sustainability and innovation are key elements of the economic growth and productivity in the contemporary era. The willingness, ability, and capacity to innovate is a strategic tool for the Slovak agro-food companies that want to maintain and/or to improve their market. The aim of this paper is to discuss the selected aspects and determinants of innovative performance of the Slovak agro-food companies and point out key areas and types in innovations, problems influencing their implementation, and assessing their success. The issue of innovation and the “new” role of the agro-food sector have become crucial in the context of transition of the Slovak economy toward more sustainable approaches. Therefore they have become important topics of both scientific research and policy agendas. Using a case study method, a questionnaire survey among 99 agro-food companies in Slovakia was carried out to obtain empirical data about the way how they manage, implement and evaluate the innovations. The study outlined the selected aspects and key determinants which affect the motivation of agro-food companies to innovate as well as selected factors influencing the processes of implementation and management of innovation. The research findings also point out that substantial changes will be required in regulation and support of innovations in the agro-food sector in Slovakia. The study could contribute to help the agro-food companies' managers to improve the innovation activities and competitiveness of their companies, and it would be also helpful for public administration in the development of policies and instruments supporting innovations in the agro-food sector.
