The usable questionnaires were 381. The researcher used LISREL program to test the hypotheses.


The results suggested that social responsibility, planning, leading, and controlling had positive influences on managerial effectiveness. With regard to customer orientation and competitor orientation, the researcher found that both had positive influences on market responsiveness. Both managerial effectiveness and market responsiveness had positive influences on sales growth. Regarding the goodness of fit indices of the structural model, SRMR was equaled to 0.08 (the criterion was 0.08) and CFI was 0.91, which was sufficient to say that the model had a good fit.
