The data were analyzed using PROCESS macro. Findings: The results reveal that management innovation and performance management directly influence organizational performance, while we also confirmed the mediating role of performance management. Implication: The association between management innovation and performance may seem palpable, but the recent literature asks for a reinvestigation. In tough competition and uncertain market situations, management innovation fosters knowledge creation and helps organizations adapt and drive them to higher performance. Originality/value: The study results enrich the scholarship about the role of management innovation in stimulating organizational performance and performance management.
