标题：Entrepreneurship and organizational performance: Empirical insight into the role of entrepreneurial training, culture and government funding across higher education institutions in Pakistan
摘要：This paper examines the relationship between entrepreneurial training, entrepreneurial culture and
organizational performance. Accordingly, the study also investigates the moderating effect of government
funding on the relationship between entrepreneurial culture, entrepreneurial training and
business performance among the public universities in Pakistan. The respondents include 415
heads of department out of 1100 identified in the study. Structural equation modeling using PLS
2.0 M3 reports significant relationship between entrepreneurial training and organizational performance.
Likewise, entrepreneurial culture is also reported to be significantly important for boosting
organizational performance. Importantly, the study reports significant moderation of government
funding on the relationship between entrepreneurial culture and organizational performance. However,
no moderation is reported on the entrepreneurial training and organizational performance
relationship. The findings of this study have enhanced the understanding regarding government
funding in the prospect of improving the performance of the HEIs in Pakistan. The study recommends
that the state government and higher education institutions in Pakistan allow room for entrepreneurial
activities, and development of entrepreneurial principles and opportunities, and further
encourage entrepreneurial practices through the development of public entrepreneurial orientation
and entrepreneurial training on innovation to generate/create positive effects on the organizational
performance of HEIs.
