Academic
researchers and practitioners are now turning their attention on the concept of
organizational culture and the concept of organizational performance or
commitment both locally and internationally due to the fact that organizations
continue to face complex challenges from their internal and external
environment. Several major studies have been conducted on the concept of
organizational culture and organizational
performance because of their importance in the field of management practice.
Organisatinal
culture is the guidelines, which the organizational members should learn very
well in other to achieve the set goals of the organization. Also organizational
culture is the personality of the organizational (Brown, 2008: 142). In a
nutshell , in creating or performing a particular organizational culture, it
must affect positively or negetively on the organisational performance or
commitment for example, is the culture of an organization is so good, well
analyzed and clearly spelt out, the organization will achieve a high performance
at long run but if the opposite is the case the organization will suffer and
may be forced out of business. A good knowledge of the norms, value, belief
system etc in an organization by her member will ensure a high level of
organizational performance or commitment.

that performance or commitment is very poor, for this singler reason, the

public enterprise or organization
