“…This result may reflect, first, the use of a perception variable (satisfaction), instead of other measurement variables of export performance as export intensity (Alegre et al, 2012;Tavassoli, 2013) which was excluded from the model because of its low internal consistency, and even the propensity to export (Becker & Egger, 2013;Cassiman et al, 2010;Tavassoli, 2013). This result can be understood as characteristic of emerging countries, because their export performance is less associated with innovation, but likely more to cost specific leadership.…”

“…While scholars have largely discussed the impacts of innovation on internationalization and export performance, it is noteworthy that there are still few studies that investigate the innovation as a mediator channel (Alegre et al, 2012). With the insertion of a mediating variable, we seek to investigate whether the innovations generated as a function of access to regional clusters is compatible with export performance.…”

“…Different studies have attempted to analyze the relationships between the location advantages of regional clusters and export performance of firms (Diez-Vial & Fernández-Olmos, 2014;Fernhaber, Gilbert, & McDougall, 2008), cluster and innovation (Lai, Hsu, Lin, Chen, & Lin, 2014;Tristão, Oprime, Jugend, & Silva, 2013), or innovation and export performance (Alegre, Pla-Barber, Chiva, & Villar, 2012;Becker & Egger, 2013;Tavassoli, 2013). However, it seems that there are still relative lacks of studies seeking for the establishment of the connections between the three dimensions, and to explore in depth the mediating effects of technological intensity of the industry, particularly in the case of emerging economies.…”

Regional clusters and innovations in product and processes are found in the literature as important determinants of firms' export performance. However, this relationship is still controversial and very highly constrained by industry, and by regions. Based on a more integrative perspective, the aim of the present article is to investigate the role of agglomeration economies of a regional cluster on the export performance of firms. Furthermore, we will test the mediating effect of innovation and the extent by which the technological intensity of the industry can perform a moderating effect between the constructs. Based on a sample of 100 export companies operating in the manufacturing industries, we use structural equation modeling to estimate the determinants of export performance. The results reveal that the agglomeration economies of a regional cluster have been found determinant factors of the export performance, as well as a significant source to generate innovations by firms. However, we found no evidence between the innovations in products and processes and export performance. The results have also shown that there are no differences among technological intensity of the industries, suggesting that the firms will access agglomeration resources of regional cluster in a complementary way to their internal resources.

“…Research confirms that a means-driven approach has a positive impact on R & D project outputs, particularly in projects with high levels of innovativeness [6]. Technology and innovativeness can lead to the development of new organisational competences through the process of trial-and-error and creativity [1], which mirrors the principles of effectuation. Consequently, by bringing together the technology and effectuation literatures and considering the evolving nature of the effectuation field [29], it is initially hypothesised, at the higher-level order of constructs, that:…”

Effectuation processes are consistent with emergent or non-predictive strategies, and speak to the essence of Schumpeter's theory of creative destruction. In this study, hypotheses are formulated to understand the relationship between effectuation, technology orientation, and firm performance. The study takes place in South Africa, which remains a highly significant economic player in sub-Saharan Africa, and is focused on the renewable energy sector. Survey results provide evidence that different dimensions of effectuation are positively associated with technology orientation, and influence firm performance. Policy makers should be encouraging firms to use effectual principles of experimentation, flexibility, establishing pre-commitments, and forming alliances, so as to maximise their returns on technology and constrain their potential losses. OPSOMMINGTotstandbringprosesse is kenmerkend van ontluikende-of nie-voorspellende strategieë en wys op die wese van Schumpeter se teorie van kreatiewe vernietiging. In hierdie studie word hipoteses geformuleer om die verwantskap tussen totstandbrenging, tegnologie oriëntasie en firma vertoning te verstaan. Die studie vind plaas in Suid-Afrika, wat steeds 'n beduidende ekonomiese rol in sub-Sahara Afrika speel, en is gefokus op die hernubare energie sektor. Opname resultate bewys dat verskillende dimensies van totstandbrenging positief geassosieer word met tegnologie oriëntasie en dat dit firma vertoning beïnvloed. Beleidmakers moet firmas aanmoedig om die totstandbrengings-beginsels van eksperimentasie, buigsaamheid, die daarstelling van vooraf verpligtinge en die vorm van genootskappe, te gebruik om sodoende hul opbrengste uit tegnologie te maksimeer en hul potensiële verliese te beperk.

Sustainable development has emerged as a field of applied research across multi‐discipline. Sustainable leadership is a new domain of effective leadership, which has been established recently to cope with issues related to sustainable development. On the subject of natural resource‐based view (NRBV) and dynamic capability theory, this study examined methods of embedding sustainable leadership into sustainable performance and investigated the mediating effect of organizational learning to sustainable leadership and sustainable performance. The data in this study were collected from a total of 369 small and medium‐sized enterprises in Pakistan using a purposive sampling technique. Partial least squares structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. The results revealed (a) a significant positive effect of sustainable leadership on organizational learning; (b) organizational learning significantly influences sustainable performance; (c) organizational learning partially mediates the relationship between sustainable leadership and sustainable performance. The present study offered an in‐depth theory of NRBV, dynamic capability, and sustainable development. Effective management advices are proposed for organizations encountering sustainable development challenges.
