Study Notes

Overview of the Study

Focus on the impact of Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) on the performance of women-owned SMEs in Vietnam.
Five dimensions of EO evaluated: innovation, competitive aggressiveness, proactiveness, risk-taking, and autonomy.
Data collected through a survey of 300 SMEs, yielding 258 valid responses.

Key Findings

Women-owned SMEs experience barriers leading to lesser performance compared to male-owned enterprises.
Common challenges include limitations in vision, strategy, and risk aversion.
Despite the growing number of women-owned businesses, their profitability, growth rate, and overall performance remain inadequate.

Entrepreneurial Orientation Dimensions

Innovation: Involves creating and supporting new ideas, products, and services. Crucial for competitive advantages.
Competitive Aggressiveness: Describes a company’s pursuit of market share through superior positioning against competitors.
Proactiveness: Reflects the ability of businesses to recognize and seize opportunities swiftly, fostering growth.
Risk-Taking: Characterizes a willingness to engage in projects with uncertain outcomes, impacting business decisions.
Autonomy: Encourages freedom in decision-making processes, promoting independent thought and initiative.

Business Performance Metrics

Performance measured through owner self-assessment, covering profitability, turnover, and development success.
Economic indicators used include return on assets and equity, assessing overall firm effectiveness.

Importance of EO in SMEs

EO has been recognized as vital for survival and sustainability in dynamic business environments.
Previous studies predominantly focused on developed countries, highlighting a gap in research within Southeast Asia.

Implications for Women-Owned SMEs

Enhancing understanding of EO dimensions can guide improvements in business tactics and strategies.
Attention to EO can facilitate better resilience and adaptability in women-owned SMEs.

Research Methodology

Use of SPSS 20.0 for data analysis.
Subjective self-reported measures deemed reliable for assessing business performance.

Future Research Directions

Further studies needed to explore EO's multidimensionality in various cultural contexts.
Investigate how overcoming identified barriers can elevate the performance of women-owned SMEs in Vietnam.
