Respondents in this study were MSME business actors or owners of MSMEs who were selected using a non-probability sampling method with a purposive sampling technique. The number of samples collected in this study was 421 MSMEs. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Square (SEM PLS) approach. Based on the results obtained proactiveness, opportunity, and customer intensity have a direct effect on business performance, while the other four variables, namely innovationfocused, calculated risk-taking, resource leveraging, and value creation, have no significant effect on business performance. Customer intensity and calculated risk-taking have no significant effect on competitive advantage. Competitive advantage is able to mediate the relationship between opportunity, resource leveraging, and value creation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
