Aspects and Dimensions of Organizational Performance: A Qualitative-Exploratory Literature Review

Abstract

The objectives of this qualitative-exploratory literature review study are to examine and explore the various aspects and dimensions of the organizational performance. The enhancement of organizational performance is a primary objective for all organizations. The corporate planners utilize novel management theories, approaches, and philosophies to improve organizational performance. Moreover, organizational performance is a major dependent variable for management and business researchers. The meaning of organizational performance varies from organization to organization. The organizational performance has multiple aspects and dimensions. We employ the qualitative exploratory literature review design and decided to explore aspects of organizational performance because of its multidimensional and complex nature. We examined the phenomena from many angles, and reviewed a larger variety of data. We explored that knowledge creation performance, environmental performance, financial performance, marketing and sales performance, product quality performance, corporate social responsibility performance, and production performance are the primary aspects and dimensions of organizational performance. The study's conclusions are crucial for corporate planners and management researchers.
