Perancangan strategik dan prestasi organisasi: kesan budaya organisasi sebagai pembolehubah penyederhana dan inovasi pengurusan sebagai pembolehubah perantara di sektor awam

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the organizational performance at public sector in Acheh province, Indonesia. Specifically, it aims at investigating direct relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance in the local government. It also examines the moderating effect of organizational culture on the relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance. Finally, the thesis examines the mediating effect of management innovation on the relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance. This study is undertaken due to the inconsistent findings in the literature concerning the relationship between the strategic planning and the organizational performance. Furthermore, more often than not, most of prior studies only examined direct relationship between the strategic planning and the organizational performance, and literature concerning indirect relationship between both variables is still insufficient. This study integrated contingency theory and resource based view theory (RBV) to map and position the possible relationship between variables in the conceptual framework. The study utilized a survey which was randomly distributed to 284 head of agencies from twenty three (23) districts in Acheh province, Indonesia. Out of 130 returned questionnaires, 110 usable responses which represent 45.77% of respond rate were used in the analysis. Correlation and simple regression analysis were used to analyze the direct relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance. Meanwhile, to investigate the moderating effect of the organizational culture on the relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance, hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used. Multiple regression, Sobel Test, MedGraph program and Kock Mediation test analysis were used to analyze the mediating effect of management innovation on the relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance. The results show that strategic planning is positively and significantly related to organizational performance. Furthermore, this study also discovers that the organizational culture does not moderate the relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance. More important, the findings confirm the mediating effect of management innovation on the relationship between strategic planning and organizational performance. Finally, implications of the findings, limitations, and directions for future research were discussed.
