| description | This study examined the influence of corporate culture and organizational
commitment on financial performance in Malaysia. The study also examined the
influence of corporate culture and organizational commitment on organizational
characteristics (type, age and size). Deshpande and Farley's (1999) corporate
cultural types and Meyer and Allen's (1990) organizational commitment types
instruments were used in this study. As for financial performance, two types of
performance measures were used: Profitability measures (Return on Assets,
Return on Investment) and Liquidity measure (Current Ratio).
A total of 101 public listed companies from various industries participated in the
study. It was found that there were significant correlations between corporate
culture and organizational commitment. Specifically, there was a relationship
between consensual culture with all the three types of organizational
commitment: affective, continuance and normative. Both entrepreneurial and
competitive cultures were found to be correlated with affective and continuance competitive cultures were found to be correlated with affective and continuance
commitments. Bureaucratic culture was not significantly correlated with any of
the organizational commitment types. The analysis between corporate culture,
organizational commitment and financial performance also showed that both
corporate culture and organizational commitment had significant influence on
the financial performance, especially for the profitability measures. Finally, it
was found that corporate culture did not influence organizational characteristics.
Nevertheless, organizational commitment was found to have significant
influences on all the three types of organizational characteristics.
From this research, we may conclude that an appropriate corporate culture in the
right work environment could promote work and organizational commitment
The right combination of both (corporate culture and organizational commitment
types) can assist to enhance productivity and financial performance. |
