Abstract
This research study primarily focused on analyzing the impact of organizational culture on
employee job performance at Wegagen Bank Share Company. The culture model adopted for this
study is the five factor organizational culture profile (OCP). These are: innovation and risk
taking, attention to detail, outcome orientation, people orientation, and team orientation. The
study is conducted at the bank’s head-quarter of Wegagen Bank S.c by using a stratified
sampling technique randomly selecting top management, line managers, and senior officials of
the bank. A research design employed for the research was a descriptive and explanatory. Data
was collected through structured questionnaire based on the OCP model. Administered
questionnaires were distributed for 178 employees of the bank, who are serving the bank more
than a year. Out of the 178, 132 usable questionnaires were gathered and analyzed using the
SPSS software. The regression analysis of the research study showed that the dimensions of
outcome orientation and people orientation of organizational culture have a strong relationship
with employee performance. The study further outlined that the dimension of attention to detail
has a weaker relationship with employee job performance. The three dimensions team
orientation, attention to detail, and innovation and risk taking were not found to have significant
relationship with employee job performance. The research concluded that further study should
be conducted to assess the impact of innovation and risk taking, people orientation, and team
orientation sub dimensions on employee job performance.
