Abstract: Globally, there seems to be a performance crisis in both public and private sector organizations occasioned by the need to produce more for less, thus raising the appetite for efficiency leading to the need for evaluation mechanisms to help assess the performance of organizations or programs that are quite inadequate. This study adopted an empirical review of various studies that has been undertaken to consider organizational factors that significantly impact employees’ performance and developed various hypotheses that are intended to help in the development of a framework of factors that organizations should focus on if they have to significantly improve on their employee’s performance levels. The study considered available literature and specific studies undertaken to establish the relationships between employee’s performance and specific organizational factors and thereafter developed a series of hypotheses. The study concludes that knowing what organizational factors influence employee productivity is a prerequisite to improving overall organizational performance. For organizations to enhance employee performance and improve their productivity both as individual employees and the overall organization, there is a need to focus on improving their training programs so as to address the immediate and future employee skills and knowledge requirements. Organizations should also enhance their employee motivation programs, career development initiatives, and recognition systems. Organizations should also enhance their performance appraisal systems and organizational leadership structures and skills. Additionally, organizations should inculcate positive thinking and attitude as well as a culture of openness. Teamwork and willingness to enhance performance in their employees in order to enhance their performance
