The study adopted the purposive sampling technique and questionnaires were used to collected the data. The analysis of the data was done using descriptive and inferential statistics. The results of the study showed that strategy implementation affect performance positively. The strategy implementation can be determined by resource allocation, stakeholders, communication and structure. The correlation analysis showed there was a strong positive relationship between performance and strategy implementation. The coefficient of determination (r2=.424) indicated that 42.4% of the variation in organizational performance can be explained by strategy implementation. The regression results established that strategy implementation is positively and significantly related to performance (?= .883, t = 2.847, p = .016). Hence, unit increase in strategy implementation while holding all other factors constant, increases performance by 0.883 units. The study recommended the improvement of strategy implementation through enhanced resource allocation, stakeholders, communication and structure could improve the performance of the organization.
