What is Organizational Effectiveness?
Effectiveness is a point of view/ a perspective. No absolute definition, which is universally applicable can be given.To be effective and achieve its goals, an organization must successfully respond to environmental factors. How can the effectiveness of an organization be measured? Various models of determining organizational effectiveness exist because organizations face different environments, they produce different products, their organizational members are made up of different kinds of people, and the organizations are at different stages of development. Each model is most useful to an organization having a particular combination of these environmental and organizational attributes.
Organizations can be effective or ineffective in a number of different ways, and these ways may be relatively independent of one another.

Efficiency
Employee absenteeism
Turnover

Conflict
participation in decision making
