Öz

The 7S Framework was developed in1980s by McKinsey Consulting Firm in order to analyse the internal factors of large scale enterprises, provide an efficient organisational structure, forming an active management and communication structure, and finally assess the organisational performance after the activities of the enterprises. The formation and improvement processes of the 7S Framework took a long time. As for suggesting it as a model to increase the performances of enterprises, it was carried out consequent to literature review and surveys in the related field. The 7S Framework is built upon 7 functional elements. These are as follows: Structure, Strategy, Systems, Shared Values, Skills, Style and Staff. The 7S Framework offers an application model to increase the efficiency of the organisational structure of an enterprise, using the economic and cultural values in the internal structure of the enterprise as well. Subsequent to providing conceptual information regarding the formation, improvement, elements and basic philosophy of the 7S Framework, the study presents instances and data concerning the application of the 7S Framework for performance assessment.
