    abstract = {This study aims to examine the entrepreneurial orientation associated with business performance by
incorporating flexibility strategies as mediation and the external environment of the business as moderation by
taking studies in the small handicraft industry sector in East Java Indonesia. Data collection techniques used
questionnaires distributed to UKM owners or managers of the craft sector as many as 198 entrepreneurs. The
results of testing structural equation modeling with WarpPLS show that entrepreneurial orientation does not
have a significant positive effect on business performance while entrepreneurial orientation on flexibility
strategies has a significant positive effect. The results of the verification of the flexibility strategy mediate the
relationship between entrepreneurial orientation to performance while the external business environment is not
able to moderate the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and performance.}
