    Assessment of the impact of strategic management on the organizational performances: a case of selected community wildlife management areas (WMAs) in Tanzania
    (Unversity of Dar es Salaam, 2016) Wambura, George James
    The study aimed at assessing the Impact of Strategic Management on the Community Wildlife Management (WMAs) performances in Tanzania. The study sought to identify extent to which the decision-making process, internal core competences, evaluation and control and also variables for organizational effectiveness affect the organizational performance of selected AAs. The descriptive study strategy was deployed to obtain required information. Questionnaires were used to collect data from 130 respondents, which were then analyzed through descriptive statistics and chi-square with the help of SPSS. Findings revealed that null hypothesis of the two independent variables were accepted, which are internal core competences and variables for organizational effectiveness had a strong positive influence on the AAs’ performance as proved by the chi-square model. However, decision-making processes and evaluation together with control measures had positive influences on organizational performance but were rejected by null hypothesis. Moreover, results obtained from the study have implications to the organizational managements. Then responsible authorities and even the public, in general, need to improve on the organizational management. Therefore, it is recommended that the organization should increase its effectiveness in decision-making, internal control, evaluations and effectiveness so as to improve the organizational performances in general. Nonetheless, further study need to be carried out in Tanzania to investigate causes of non-adoption of strategic management approach in Community Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) among other organizations.
