摘要

本研究的目的有两个:一是考察创业能力和创新对制造业中小企业可持续绩效的影响，二是探讨创新在创业能力和制造业中小企业可持续绩效之间的中介作用。设计/方法/方法从马来西亚制造业中小企业收集的数据通过偏最小二乘结构方程建模(PLS-SEM)方法进行分析。研究结果表明，创业能力对制造业中小企业的创新和可持续绩效具有显著的促进作用。此外，创新对创业能力与制造业中小企业可持续绩效之间的关系具有部分中介作用。制造业中小企业渴望率先将新产品推向市场，这反映在这些中小企业实施积极的创业能力或能力，使他们能够扫描环境，发现高质量的商业机会，并通过这些中小企业的研究和发展活动做出反应，创造出能够真正满足客户需求的产品。因此，这些中小企业抓住了市场机遇。实际意义制造业中小企业应通过将企业能力与创新结合起来，以培养更大的敏捷性，以快速应对变化和市场需求，从而加强其可持续表现。这些中小企业应定期召开策略会议，讨论当前的项目和评估关键指标，并确定和测试创新和新业务的新想法，以便在充满挑战的商业环境中取得可持续的业绩。原创性/价值本研究将资源基础理论(RBV)和三重底线(TBL)框架整合为一个框架，强调创新在创业能力与制造业中小企业可持续绩效之间的中介作用。由于对这种关系的探索非常有限，本研究对现有文献做出了新颖的贡献。

Linking entrepreneurial competencies, innovation and sustainable performance of manufacturing SMEs

PurposeThe purpose of this study is twofold: to examine the impact of entrepreneurial competencies and innovation on manufacturing small and medium-sized enterprises' (SMEs) sustainable performance and to explore the role of innovation as a mediator on the relationship between entrepreneurial competencies and manufacturing SMEs' sustainable performance.Design/methodology/approachData collected from manufacturing SMEs in Malaysia were analysed via the partial least squares-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) approach.FindingsThe results reveal that entrepreneurial competencies play a robust and noteworthy role in promoting innovation and the sustainable performance of manufacturing SMEs, respectively. Further, innovation has a partially mediated effect on the link between entrepreneurial competencies and manufacturing SMEs' sustainable performance. Manufacturing SMEs' aspirations to be the first to market with new products are reflected in these SMEs' implementation of positive entrepreneurial competencies or capabilities which enable them to scan the environment to identify high-quality business opportunities and respond through these SMEs' Research and Development (R&D) activities to create products that provide real benefit to customers' needs. Hence, these SME's seize the market opportunities.Practical implicationsManufacturing SMEs' sustainable performance should be strengthened by linking entrepreneurial competencies with innovation to nurture greater agility to respond quickly to change and market demands. These SMEs should conduct tactical meetings on a regular basis to discuss current projects and assess critical indicators, as well as to identify and test fresh ideas for innovation and new business ventures in order to achieve sustainable performance in challenging business environments.Originality/valueBy applying the resource-based view (RBV) theory and the triple bottom line (TBL) framework into a single framework, this study highlights the role of innovation as a meaningful mediator between entrepreneurial competencies and manufacturing SMEs' sustainable performance. As exploration of this relationship has been very limited, the study makes a novel contribution to the extant literature.
