Abstract:  Innovation  is  currently  considered  to  be  critical  for  organizational competitiveness  and  survival.  There  has  been  a  mushrooming  of  conferences, courses,  publications  and  event  whole  journals  dedicated  to  the  innovation  issued including  innovativeness and innovation strategy. This  paper focusses on  the effect of  innovation  strategy  on  firms’s  performance.  An  innovation  strategy  for manufacturing function covers four areas: a firm’s desired innovation leadership orientation  (i.e.  being  a  leader  versus  a  follower),  its  level  of  emphasis  on  process and product innovation, its use of internal and external sources of innovation and its intensity  of  investment  in  innovation. This  study  examines  two  models  of  the association between manufacturing firms’ innovation strategy  and their financial performance. The first examines the variations in the firms’ financial performance as a  function  of  the  dimensions  of  innovation  strategy.  The  second  is  a  sequential model  that  suggests  a  causal  consequency  among  the  dimension  of  innovation strategy  that  may  lead    to  higher  performance.  Data  were  collected  through  mailed questionnaires.  Respondents  were  CEOs  of  medium  and  large  manufacturing  firms on  Indonesia.  The  questionnaires  were  sent  to  700  CEOs  manufacturing  firms,  an 21.05%  response  rate.  Test  of  non-response  bias  indicated  that  the  sample  is representative for this study. The findings of this study suggest that: (1) Innovation strategy  is  important  factor  and  a  determinant  of  financial  performance,  (2)  both model  are  appropriate  for  examining  the  associations  between  the  dimension  of innovation strategy and firms’ performance, and (3) the sequential model provides additional  insights  into  the  indirect  contribution  of  the  individual  dimensions  of innovation strategy to firms’ performance.
