Data was collected through semi- structured questionnaire, with open ended questions, interviews and discussions. The data analysis methods were calculating frequency of distribution in percentages of items under study, measures of central tendency-Mean, and Standard deviation. The sampling design targeted supervisors, management team members and officials from Ministry of education. The agency level position-power and resources uses have affected the organization significantly. However, the efforts made by leaders have moderated the situation of the organization to slowly but surely progress towards effectiveness. This has been underpinned by automation and occupied vacant positions. Currently the organizations position-power is raised to authority level of hierarchy. Lower position-power level and higher goals and objectives make organizations ineffective. Key words: Agency, Authority, Position-power, Resource dependence, Organizational Effectiveness
