Abstract:

 Leadership in an organization is like a cornerstone in a storey building in that the leader gives the direction and guidance towards achievement of the set goals. Most of the organizations do have the drafts, but how the leader decides in terms of priority and resource allocation determines the overall outcome. Thus, a visionary leader in any organization is a tree seedling that needs to be nurtured. This paper explores the influence of strategic leadership on organizational performance in selected banks within Nakuru Sub County. The study used primary data obtained from the respondents and secondary data from the journals, books and other print media. The study employed a descriptive survey design. Structured questionnaire to collect data where both closed and open-ended questions were used to get the opinions of the respondents. There was 84% response rate and only 16% non-responses. The data collected was first coded and the opinions of the respondents analyzed by use of statistical package for social sciences (SPSS). Pearson correlation and Chi-square tests were used to estimate the relationship between the strategic leadership and the organization performances. The data was later presented in tabular form and charts for easier interpretation. It was hoped that the findings of the study would clearly show the importance of developing strategic leaders that will create a viable future for the organization.
