Abstract: The nature of the multivariate relationship between six characteristics of planning systems and three different conceptualizations of planning effectiveness is examined using canonical correlatioa analysis.The analysis indicates that the organizational context of planning -captured here by two key characteristicsresistance to planning and resources provided for planningis the dominant impact on planning system effectiveness, broadly construed.While individual design elements of the planning system such as use of techniques and external orientation do influence effectiveness, the contextual dimensions appear to be overriding.Implications for further research on planning systems and directions for future extensions of this study are discussed.
