Corporate entrepreneurship (CE) positively affects growth and profitability of organizations by providing competitive advantage over innovation driven technological transformations and intense global competition. CE activities have an elevator role on company performance via adoption of a change-oriented structure and development of new products, processes and services. High performance human resource practices (HPHRPs) help to boost both intra-firm level entrepreneurial behavior, and also organizational outcomes. When combined with the influential effect of corporate entrepreneurship activities, HPHRPs support achievement of better organizational performance. In this study, a selected group of HPHRPs was assessed for their possible direct and indirect effects on firm performance. Moreover, the possible mediation effect of CE activities in this relationship was examined. To test the hypotheses of the study, the data were gathered from a total of 199 manufacturing and service sector companies operating in Turkish business environment. As a result of the structural equation modeling analysis conducted by AMOS, the mediation effect of CE activities between HPHRPs and firm performance was validated within the context of the current study. In addition, the results indicated a varying relationship between different HPHRPs and CE activities. Explicitly, training, clear job description, participation opportunities, employer's employment commitment, reward and performance evaluation practices were found to have distinctive effects on innovation, new business venturing and self renewal activities, which act as mediating variables between the selected HPHRPs and firm performance.

高性能人力资源实践与企业绩效：企业创业的中介效应

通过提供与创新驱动的技术改造和激烈的全球竞争相比的竞争优势，企业企业家精神（CE）对组织的增长和盈利能力产生积极影响。通过采用以变更为导向的结构以及开发新产品，流程和服务，CE活动可以对公司绩效起到提升作用。高性能人力资源实践（HPHRP）有助于促进公司内部的企业家行为以及组织成果。当结合企业创业活动的影响力时，HPHRP支持更好的组织绩效。在这项研究中，评估了一组选定的HPHRP对企业绩效的直接和间接影响。此外，研究了CE活动在这种关系中可能的调解作用。为了检验研究的假设，从总共199家在土耳其商业环境中运营的制造和服务业公司收集了数据。作为由AMOS进行的结构方程模型分析的结果，HPHRP之间的CE活动与公司绩效之间的中介作用在本研究的背景下得到了验证。此外，结果表明不同的HPHRP和CE活动之间存在变化的关系。明确地发现，培训，明确的职位描述，参与机会，雇主的就业承诺，奖励和绩效评估实践对创新，新业务开拓和自我更新活动具有独特的影响，
