The main results include: (1) CS is directly and positively related to customer focus, continuous improvement and human resource (HR) management, while innovation is directly and positively affected by leadership and HR management; (2) leadership has an indirect positive impact on CS, while it positively affects CS; (3) process management (PM) is positively related to supplier management (SM), quality tools and techniques (QTTs) and HR management, while it has an indirect and positive effect on CS; (4) HR management is positively related to leadership and it has a direct positive impact on CS, innovation, PM and QTTs and (5) finally, SM has a direct positive effect on PM. In conclusion, the awareness of Jordanian firms of these relationships may guide them to improve their internal performance as well as strengthen their external competition.
