  abstract = {The research examines the impact of EFQM Excellence Model enablers on innovation and business performance in the Russian context. Despite economic instability, Russian organizations have increasingly adopted the EFQM framework, a trend that accelerated after the official release of the Russian-language version of the Model in 2019. Using empirical data from 110 questionnaires completed by EFQM award-winning organizations, the research employs structural equation modeling (SPSS and AMOS) to test the hypotheses. The results confirm that strengthening EFQM Excellence enablers positively influences both innovation outcomes and overall business performance. The findings highlight the Model’s significant value for organizations operating in challenging economic environments and provide practical insights for the wider international business community.},
