Abstract: Purpose: The aim of the study was to examine Impact of Corporate Governance Structures on Strategic Decision-Making Processes in Organizations. Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: The study found that effective corporate governance structures, characterized by clear roles, accountability, and transparency, ensure that strategic decisions are made with a comprehensive understanding of the organization's objectives, risks, and stakeholder interests. These structures foster a decision-making environment where checks and balances are in place, promoting decisions that align with long-term organizational goals and ethical standards. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Agency Theory, Resource Dependence Theory & Stewardship Theory may be used to anchor future studies on Impact of Corporate Governance Structures on Strategic Decision-Making Processes in Organizations. Organizations should proactively recruit board members from diverse backgrounds to capitalize on the innovation and performance benefits identified in research. This practice recommendation aligns with findings that diverse boards are better equipped to navigate complex challenges and seize strategic opportunities. Strive for a balanced approach to board independence that encourages robust oversight while maintaining strategic agility. Practically, this involves periodically evaluating board composition and governance practices to ensure they align with organizational strategic goals and regulatory requirements, Policymakers should consider enhancing regulatory frameworks to encourage effective governance practices.
