In contemporary organizational settings, assessing and optimizing the performance of management teams is essential for achieving strategic objectives and maintaining a competitive advantage. Leadership structures are typically segmented into hierarchical levels, each with distinct roles and responsibilities. However, the efficiency and effectiveness of these management tiers, as well as their interrelationships and collective impact on organizational outcomes, remain challenging to quantify. This study aims to develop a comprehensive model for evaluating the performance of two management teams operating at different hierarchical levels within a Macedonian public enterprise. By examining senior executives and middle management, the research identifies key performance indicators that accurately reflect their respective contributions and interdependencies. The proposed model will facilitate comparative analysis, providing insights into how various management levels influence strategic effectiveness, operational efficiency, and adaptability within a dynamic organizational environment.
