TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the EO of small businesses and find that a main-effects-only analysis provides an incomplete picture of performance, and they find that when combined with EO (a three-way interaction model) the configurational approach explains variance in performance over and above a contingency model (two-way interactions) and a main effects-only model.

TL;DR: In this paper, a cumulative body of knowledge about entrepreneurship orientation has been collected and used in the context of entrepreneurship research, with the focus on entrepreneurship orientation (EO) being one of the few areas in entrepreneurship research where a cumulative knowledge base is available.

TL;DR: It is argued that knowledge-based resources (applicable to discovery and exploitation of opportunities) are positively related to firm performance and that EO enhances this relationship.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors suggest that EO may influence firm performance and suggest that it is important to be aware of the company's EO orientation in order to improve performance.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on risk taking as one important dimension of entrepreneurial orientation and its impact in family firms and find that risk taking is a distinct dimension of entrepreneurship orientation in families and that it is positively associated with proactiveness and innovation.
