This study shed light on the relationship between procedural rationality in strategic decision-making in organisations and their strategic decision-making effectiveness, taking into consideration the mediating effects of entrepreneurial orientation, as an intangible resource for organisations. Collecting data from 162 companies that work under the umbrella of the Saudi financial sector, the research found out that procedural rationality in strategic decision-making within organisations positively affected strategic decision-making effectiveness. Likewise, the research revealed that procedural rationality in strategic decision-making increased the level of entrepreneurial orientation. Moreover, the research findings showed that the high level of entrepreneurial orientation within organisations impacted their strategic decision-making effectiveness positively. These findings enrich the fields of strategic decision-making and entrepreneurial orientation within organisations, which have not relatively been subject to investigations while examining such links.
