dc.description.abstractDespite the extensive research in the domain of Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) and Entrepreneurial Leadership (EL), very little work has been done on small and medium enterprises (SME). There is numerous financial assistance and supports have been provided to SME, however the SME Performance is still considered as low. By taking into account the relevance of these research topics, this study aims to identify the relationship between EO and EL towards SME Performance with Innovation Performance as a mediator. In order to achieve these objectives, quantitative approach is chosen and questionnaires are collected from 285 SME in Penang. The sampling technique used is Disproportionate Stratified Systematic Sampling. Statistical Package of Social Science (SPSS) and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) are used to test the research model and verify all hypotheses on the direct and indirect relationships of EO and EL through Innovation Performance on SME Performance. The results of this study showed that only two dimensions of EO (innovativeness and proactiveness) have significant relationships with SME Performance. However, risk-taking and both dimensions of EL failed to reveal the direct impact on SME Performance.en_US
