Abstract

Many researchers have reported the relationship between organizational culture and job performance. This research study aimed to investigate the influence of organizational culture upon employees’ performance among personnel at one large university in Thailand. The population of the study was employees of the university. Organizational culture was classified into detail-oriented, outcome-oriented, people-oriented, team-oriented, competition-oriented, security-oriented and innovation-oriented cultures. Results revealed that detail, outcome, and security orientations could significantly predicted job performance but people, team, competition, and innovation cultural orientations could not determine job performance
