Most governments fail to effectively implement their economic policies, rendering the economic environment uncertain and unconducive to investment. This study explored the synergy between strategic plans of government departments and governmentÕs economic policy priorities and their implementation, with reference to Gauteng Provincial Government. The mixed-method research approach was used with questionnaires, semi-structured interviews and document analysis as tools. The study targeted seven government departments, five being central to implementing two key provincial economic policies, i.e. Gauteng Township Economy Revitalisation Strategy and Gauteng Spatial Development Framework and two responsible for province-wide policy coordination, resourcing and monitoring and evaluation. The following were key findings: _ Deeper understanding of economic policy priorities by the management structure of the provincial government was lacking _ Departments attempted to plan for implementation of economic policy priorities but monitoring and evaluation systems were not utilised properly to improve implementation. GPG managers need to: _ Go beyond familiarity with economic policy priorities, and have a deeper understanding ensuring that strategic planning institutionalises economic priorities thus improving chances of their implementation _ Manage strategically with an understanding of linkage between economic policy priorities, strategic planning and performance management through effective monitoring and evaluation regimes to ensure achievement of planned outcomes. pa2018 Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) MBA Unrestricted 2018-05-11T09:03:04Z 2018-05-11T09:03:04Z 30-03-18 2017 Mini Dissertation Ngcobo, S 2017, Analysing the synergy between strategic plans of GPG departments and governments economic policy priorities and their implementation, MBA Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/64899> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/64899 en © 2018 University of Pretoria.
