The study recommends the adequate resourcing and funding of Ghanaian public universities by the government, as well
as alumni and the granting of more autonomy to authorities to charge economic fees. For a higher level of strategic
planning competence, the leaders (university administration) should be more adaptive and reduce hierarchical elements
to a minimum. The adoption of the collegiate system of governance and the attraction and retention of young competent
teaching staff are also recommended.
Future studies could cover all the six public universities in Ghana as well as comparing strategic planning in public and
private universities.
