Poverty is a critical and social issue in the developing world. Various policy measures have been taken by the countries for reducing this issue. Similarly, Sri Lanka has been taken many initiatives. But the incidence of poverty has not come down as expected. For an example, the Poverty Head Count Ratio in rural sector was 29.4% in 1990 and 24.7 % in 2012 (Census and Statistic Department in Sri Lanka). Among the many reasons for failure of these, poor implementation is imperative. In this context, this paper carries out an empirical study to identify the factors affecting successful implementation of poverty alleviation policy. Quantitative research method was used and primary data was gathered from 71 officers attached with the implementation process at the national, district, and divisional levels. A structured questionnaire was used with interviews for the data collection. Reliability analysis and factor analysis were undertaken to ensure the validity and reliability of the data. Correlation and regression analysis was undertaken in identifying the factors. The test result found that capability, disposition, number of people involved in the implementation, past experience of the implementing officers are significantly affecting on successful implementation of the policy. Based on the findings, policy measures are suggested for improving the policy implementation.

The purpose of this study is to identify obstacles and success factors evident from empirical studies affecting strategy implementation and to provide an overview of the empirical literature. A systematic literature review (SLR) was used to analyze thirty-five peer-reviewed empirical articles. All of the 35 research papers selected in this review use primary data gathered from the organizations studied. This study of empirical research has identified 16 obstacles that can hinder strategy implementation and 18 success factors that can facilitate implementation. This study highlights factors that are dualistic, meaning that they contain both elements of obstacles and key success factors. The dualistic factors should therefore be considered in the strategy implementation process. Research gaps are identified. They include lack of studies on how to overcome obstacles to strategy on the one hand and on employee influence on implementation on the other. The differences among industries, countries, or cultures regarding implementation have not yet been explored at any depth. The paper adds to theoretical and practical knowledge based on the systematic overview it provides on strategy implementation from 1980 until 2020. The paper enriches the practical knowledge relevant to those implementing strategies, as it captures and identifies the dualistic factors affecting strategy implementation.
