The four organizational culture dimensions that were examined were teamwork, communication, reward and recognition, and training and development. The dependent variable was project performance, while the independent variables were these four elements, which were represented using the Jolly and Ricardo model. In order to accomplish the research's goal, a descriptive and explanatory research design using a quantitative approach was used. The study's target population consisted of 1370 Ethio Telecom permanent employees located in Addis Ababa. Using a stratified random selection technique, 253 respondents were chosen from a total of 1370 employees. A standardized questionnaire with a five point Likert scale was used to collect the data. This study utilized 205 questionnaires in total, and descriptive and inferential statistics were employed to analyze the data. The data was tabulated, summarized, classified, and analyzed using SPSS version 27.0.1. The findings of the Spearman correlation test show that the four organizational culture dimension variables and project performance have a highly significant positive relationship.
