English Abstract
The main objective of this study is to examine the impact of entrepreneurial competencies on firm performance in Jordan by studying the impact of six entrepreneurial competencies (Opportunity, Organizing, Strategic, Relationship, Commitment and Learning) on firm performance in addition to examining the effect of firm capabilities as a moderating variable on the impact of entrepreneurial competencies on firm performance.
The population of the study consists of Jordanian entrepreneurs who are the owners of entrepreneurial firms; Convenience sampling technique was used to collect the responses of the participants which was composed of 91 respondents.
Further, simple, multiple as well as hierarchical regression were applied to analyze the collected data.
The findings of this study revealed that opportunity competency, strategic competency and commitment competency have an impact on the performance of the firm.
Additionally, firm capabilities were found to have a moderating effect on the impact of entrepreneurial competencies on firm performance.
The researcher proposed that more focus should be given to entrepreneurial competencies specially (Opportunity, Strategic and Commitment), to clearly identify and understand this concept according to its direct impact on firm performance.
Additionally, firm capabilities should be studied clearly for its moderating effect on the impact of all entrepreneurial competencies (Opportunity, Organizing, Strategic, Relationship, Commitment and Learning) on firm performance.
