Data was collected through mail survey and a sample of 255 responses was used for analysis. Using multiple regression analysis, the information provided by the respondents was used to test the hypotheses of the theoretical model of the study. The results show that only transformational leadership, quality management practices and effective entrepreneurial orientation has a significant positive relationship with organization excellence while entrepreneurial orientation had been found to be insignificantly related organizational excellence. The results from this study have implications that make modest and yet valuable contributions to the body of knowledge about factors that influence organizational excellence while extending the scope and applicability of the resource based view theory with respect to a different operating environment from previous studies.
