Abstract

This study aimed to examine the causal relationship among variables of business competitiveness development, learning orientation, entrepreneurial commitment, and business performance of the small-sized silk enterprises in Wajo Regency. The population of this study involves all business actors from 5,137 small-sized silk enterprises spread in 14 sub-districts in Wajo Regency. The size of the sample, based on the Krejcie and Morgan table, is 357. The technique of data analysis used is the structural equation modeling. The results of the analysis show that business competitiveness development and learning orientation partially have a significant effect on entrepreneurial commitment, as well as on business performance. Furthermore, business competitiveness development and learning orientation have an indirect effect on business performance through entrepreneurial commitment. The suggestion of this research is that business development that is oriented to business performance is not enough to be based solely on strengthening knowledge and skills, but the important thing is related to personality development of business actors
