Abstract : This study researched on issues influencing performance management of public organizations in Tanzania was done at Medical Store Department (MSD) Headquarter Dar es Salaam and 75 respondents participated. The general objective was to explore issues influencing performance management of public organisations in Tanzania. Specific objectives were; to determine the influence of leadership in the performance of public organisations and to determine the influence of strategic plan in the performance of public organisations. The study used a qualitative research approach and used both primary and secondary data. Primary data collected through key informant interview and secondary data collected through documentary review. The study revealed that organisations which have leaders with good leadership skills, well-structured and cooperative strategic plan are likely to have good performance management. Moreover the study found that good leadership is the major influence of performance management in any organisation. Organisations might have structured and cooperative strategic plan but without having good leaders with high leadership skills it will not work out. Furthermore, the study exposed that there are other issues like motivation and personal attitudes which can influence organization performance management. The study recommends that MSD should have a leaders’ succession plan and conduct several leadership skills trainings so as to empower leaders with important skills to carry out their day to day errands in an effective and efficient manner. Also they have to make sure that their strategic plan is communicated to all level of employees for easy implementation. Not all that but also employees should be motivated and encouraged to have good attitudes which have positive relationship with organisation performance.
