Abstract: This research attempt to address the question, can it be inferred that institution policy has effect on the relationship between institutional strategies and the performance of the selected MDIs in Nigeria? Despite the importance of Institutional Strategies (IS)-(Agility, Flexibility, Alliance, and Planning), as identified strategic options/approaches used by management development institutions (MDIs) to pilot the different setting towards attaining a successful performance. The multi-stage sampling technique was used to select 398 staff. Stratified sampling technique was used to select the relevant MDIs across the entire MDIs in Nigeria. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential (correlation and regression) statistics to determine the moderating effect of institution policy on the relationship between IS and performance of the selected MDIs. Findings revealed that institution policy had no statistically significant moderating effect on the relationship between IS and performance of the selected MDIs in Nigeria, (Adj.R² = .137, F(4,336)=0.933, p>.05. The study concluded that recognizing the role and importance of MDIs in economic development, it is recommended that government (the office of the head of civil service of the federation) should develop flexible and concise policies as means of institutional support. When policies are understood by the different entities in an institution, there will be an atmosphere of improved performance reason being that everyone will work according to stipulated rules, using their initiative for creative value within the stipulated strategies.
