Resumo

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of top management capabilities inclusive
of global mindset (GM), foreign knowledge (FK) and international firm performance (IP).
Design/methodology/approach – This paper opted for a descriptive study using structured
questionnaires involving 118 Malaysian small medium enterprises (SMEs) that are currently marketing their
products abroad with halal JAKIM certification. Multiple regression analysis was applied to test the influence
of the two variables on international performance.
Findings – The findings revealed both GM and FK significantly influence IP, which is crucial to overcome
SMEs’ resistance to go international.
Research limitations/implications – This study only focusses on the niche market which is halal
export product, thus the findings may not be generalized to other sectors. Furthermore, the firm size might
also influence the significant contribution of top management.
Originality/value – This paper is a part of ongoing study of internal capabilities and international firm
performance among SMEs halal product manufacturers in developing countries.
