Explaining the entrepreneurial orientation–performance relationship in emerging economies: The intermediate roles of absorptive capacity and improvisation (2017, neutral): “EO has its heritage in upper echelon logic (Covin & Miller, 2014) such that the practices and processes senior managers use to form and execute an entrepreneurial strategic posture for their firm relies on the actions and commensurate tactics they deploy across it (Covin & Slevin, 1989; Lumpkin &…”
The mediating role of competitive strategy in international entrepreneurial orientation (2016, methodology): “The study measures this variable using Miller's (1983) scale with the modifications of Covin and Slevin (1989) and Covin and Miller (2014). For these authors, measuring international entrepreneurial orientation involves three dimensions: innovation (3 items), proactivity”
Networking responses to different levels of institutional void: a comparison of internationalizing SMEs in Egypt and the UK (2017, background): “The salient features of the Egyptian and UK institutional and cultural contexts are therefore expected to reinforce each other in encouraging contrasting uses of network attachments to assist internationalization (Covin & Miller, 2013).”
The formation and interplay of social capital in crowdfunded social ventures (2014, background): “Other factors such as risk-taking, experience or entrepreneurial orientation (Covin and Miller 2014) influence decisions and outcomes.”
SMEs and international entrepreneurship: An institutional network perspective (2015, background): “Meanwhile, Covin and Miller (2014) suggested that IE research can be contextualized into two broad streams: a) firstly, there is the new venture/new entry viewpoint, which considers IE primarily in the context of the identification and exploitation of opportunities for new entry (e.g. Mainela,…”

On its own, a negative relationship occurs between EO and performance. However, MO (from Kohli & Jaworski, 1990) is positioned as a construct representing firmlevel behaviors. Not only do Matsuno et al. (20”
International entrepreneurship: The pursuit of entrepreneurial opportunities across national borders (2018, background): “…construct ‘‘entrepreneurial orientation’’ has been widely used in entrepreneurship research as well as international entrepreneurship research at the firm level (see Covin & Miller, 2014), and ties together the entrepreneurship focus on innovation and the international business focus on markets.”
