ABSTRACT

The subject of corporate performance has received significant attention from scholars in the various fields of business and strategic management. It has also been the primary concern of business practitioners (managers and entrepreneurs) in all types of organizations, because the outcome of that performance is vital to an organization's health, profitability and ultimately its survival. High performance organizations are success stories because of their effectiveness and efficiency in managing their operations, and their positive economic contributions to the well being ofthe country and the individual, while low performance organizations are not.
