dc.description.abstractEvery organisation needs to have an effective communication through which all activities from all parts involved in there can clearly be linked as well as coordinated. That is to say, an effective flow of information and implementation of strategic plan should be done via effective organisational structure. This study thus, was mainly concerned with finding out the impact of organizational structure on the effective performance of corporate strategies in public institutions; the case of eight administrative regions of the National Housing Corporation (NHC). In that the whole process, the study had employed a methodology in which questionnaire and focus group discussion were used as methods for gathering primary data from the field (sample size) of fifty respondents, from three levels of hierarchy. However, data were presented through the use of table and figures (in terms of pie charts and graphs). The study was tasked to achieve four specific objectives including; to determine the impact of organizational structure on the effective performance of corporate strategies in public institutions, to identify the contribution of organizational structure on the effective achievement of corporate strategies in public institutions, to examine the influence of organizational structure on the effective implementation of strategic plan in NHC, and to suggest strategies through which NHC can achieve effective performance of corporate strategies. Based on the findings, this study found that the currently used organizational structure had negative impact on the performance of corporate strategies in public institutions, including NHC due to its bureaucracy. In that regards, the study had therefore concluded that there was no positive contribution from organizational structure on the effective achievement of corporate strategies at NHC. Moreover, the study had also concluded that, once there is an appropriate established and use of organisational structure, positive influence must be derived from and lead to effective implementation of strategic plan in any institution – something, which was found different for the case of NHC since the said influence was not fully achieved in a positive way. And based on respondents views, the study had put suggestions that, NHC can achieve effective performance of corporate strategies by; restructuring the vi actual organisational structure, and reduce bureaucracy, and in turn get rid of the problem of ineffective achievement and performance of corporate strategies addressed herein this study.
