Abstract

This study aimed to develop a theoretical framework to identify and evaluate the factors that improve organizational performance as several ways to increase operational performance have been introduced. The survey in this paper comprised 111 respondents who were drawn from various organizations across Pakistan. The deductive approach followed by the quantitative research method was used to test the study hypotheses through IBM SPSS version 22.0 as a statistical tool. Data analysis was performed by evaluating the regression model. The findings demonstrate that all the hypotheses were supported and significantly contributed to organizational performance. Further, this study will help practitioners to identify and shape their businesses for enhanced organizational performance. Future research can be done on the other factors that could influence organizational performance and can be tested using other research techniques.
