This study explores the effects of individual-level social networks of senior executives on organizational-level social networks (strategic alliance), business entrepreneurship, and business performance of SME. We also verify the mediate effect of strategic alliance and business entrepreneurship on the relationship between social networks of senior executives and business performance. A total of 132 effective questionnaires were returned, Our summary results are as follows: (1) there are positive relationships between social network of senior executive and the numbers of alliances, trust among partners and business entrepreneurship, (2) the relationship between trust among partners with business performance is positive, (3) the business entrepreneurship of SME is the important mediator of the relationship between social networks of senior executives and business performance. Further, the authors discuss the managerial implications and suggest for future research about these results.
