Proposal of a theoretical model to identify organizational decline

Abstract

This study aimed to propose a conceptual model of Identification of Organizational Decline, based on two indicators: Organizational Satisfaction Indicator and Financial Indicator. For the study, we used two bibliometric reviews, which, ultimately, associated the variables of the foundations of excellence in quality with organizational decline. As a result, we observed that the topic of organizational decline in companies has factors of managerial, physical, financial, and behavioral nature, and that their performances worsen by their lack of initiative in using the three planning processes (strategic planning, budget, and control) in a structured way. Regarding companies that seek excellence in quality, these concerns become increasing demands for their managers, who must develop responsible practices and tools to achieve a good performance, bearing in mind the constant search for satisfaction and retention of customers not only for the final product, but throughout the chain process. Thus, the literature on this topic is vast, and this study is justified because it notes a strong relationship between the lack of factors of excellence in management and organizational decline.
