ANALYSIS OF THE RELATIONSHIP THAT EXISTS BETWEEN ORGANISATIONAL CULTURE, MOTIVATION AND PERFORMANCE

Abstract

This research aimed at investigating the relationship that exists between organizational culture, employee motivation and performance. The domains of organizational culture (organizational values, individual beliefs, working environment, and employee relationships) and employee motivation and performance were investigated. In order to find the culture and motivation link, mixed method approach for data collection and analysis has been used. By using Pearson’s and Spearman’s Correlation methods, a positive correlation has been found between the two variables. The study revealed that organizational culture has a direct impact on employee motivation and indirectly on organizational performance as well. The better the organizational culture, the higher the motivational level of employees. It was observed that if organizations develop a strong culture of rewarding and acknowledging employees’ effort, it leads to increase motivation and their performance would be significantly enhanced. Key words: employee, motivation, organisational culture, performance.
