Abstract: In an attempt to provide a better understanding of the tension between conformance and performance in the governance context, this study develops a conceptual model for enterprise governance (EG) from the contingency theory perspective. The study argues that the value-based management (VBM) approach can achieve the objectives of EG, keeping the right balance between conformance and performance. Therefore, the study investigates the implications of fit between four contingency factors and VBM on organisational performance using corporate governance (CG) mechanisms and corporate entrepreneurship as mediating factors. The study contributes to the literature by linking a performance management system, i.e. VBM, to the EG framework aiming to bridge the gap between management accounting, CG, and entrepreneurship disciplines.
