not reached their full potential. It is vital to comprehend its drivers in order to improve the production of SMEs. Previous studies discovered that
organizations with better innovative behavior often instigate changes which could influence organizational’s performance. Hence, this study seeks to
explore the relationship between organizational innovation (OI) and organizational performance (OP) of Malaysian SMEs. For that reason, this article
does not only analyze the concept of OI and OP, but also the linkage between both concepts at the end of the findings. Data from SMEs in manufacturing
sectors were collected. Data from the respondents were assembled using a total of 321 self-administered questionnaires. The hypotheses were tested
using Smart PLS 2.0. As a conclusion, a positive relationship was displayed between OI and OP. This study will be helpful for future researchers,
entrepreneurs and policy makers in grasping the value of OI towards boosting SMEs performance. |
