| Abstract | The Kenyan 2010 constitution attempts to entrench a culture of enhanced service delivery as it pins hopes in the Kenya’s Vision 2030. With this new era, devolved system of governances came to existence calling for creation of new governance structures while also entrenching the value of citizen participation in governance. However, three years down the line only 21% of Kenyans are satisfied with the county government’s performance and 53% of Kenyans expressing their dissatisfaction with the performances of county governments majorly due to invisible developments and service delivery as a result of devolution. Mombasa County has also been shown to face serious challenges in service delivery despite the wide ranging reforms put in place over the years. This study therefore sought to establish how organizational structure influences strategic change management in Mombasa County. The study adopted a descriptive cross-sectional survey design using both qualitative and quantitative approaches involving purposive sampling of at least one senior level manager as key informant from each of the existing department within the county. Qualitative data collected from the 12 key informants were backed up with quantitative data collected using questionnaires administered to 364 junior staff sampled through simple random sampling. Quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS version 21 where relationships between the variables were assessed using correlation and regression analysis while qualitative data were analyzed via content and thematic analysis where emerging themes were presented in form of verbatim. The study found out that there was a positive and significant relationship between Organizational Structure and Strategic Change Management (r=0.318, p=0.000). Based on the findings, the study concluded that Organizational Structure has a positive and significant effect on Strategic Change Management. The study recommends the County government of Mombasa to focus on organizational structure since it was found to have a positive and significant effect on the strategic change management. This study noted that organizational structure contributes to a greater extent towards a change management process.
