The Influence of Organisational Resources on Implementations of Strategic plans in Tanzania’s Executive Agencies

A cross-sectional study investigated on the influence of organisational resources on implementations of strategic plans in Tanzania’s executive agencies. The literature in execution of strategies shows that, organizations fail to attain their goals not due to bad strategy formulation, but the implementation is a key to their demise or failure. The goal was to investigate strategic influence of organisational resources on execution of strategic plans. Data were gathered from seven (7) of Tanzania's 27 executive agencies. This accounted for 26% of the total number of agencies. The study employed stratified random sampling to obtain a sample size of 188 respondents, representing 30 percent of the target populations (632 employees) in the headquarters of sampled executive agencies. The study revealed a significant strong positive relationship (R = 56.2%) between organisational resources and execution of strategic plans with R-square of 0.315 which implies that, 31.5% in execution of strategic plans is contributed by organisational resources and 68.5% was contributed by other factors which were not included in this study. According to the findings, organisational resources are a critical factor in the successful implementation of strategies in Tanzania's executive agencies.
