Organizational Effectiveness

 

            Organizations are developed or ruined based on how well they perform. According to Yelken, Kilic, and Ozdemar (2012), organization effectiveness is closely tied to strategic planning.

This paper will reveal the summaries of the interviews, share the findings, and recommend appropriate actions to ensure sustainability of the organization. .
