Abstract
The study has sought the effects of organizational culture on employees' engagement in Heineken brewery share company. The study used quantitative research method and explanatory research design to objectively answer the proposed research questions. Stratified Random Probability sampling technique was used to select the employees’ Descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation, analysis of variance (ANOVA) and regression were carried out to analyze the data using SPSS version 27. Descriptive analysis was used to determine which culture is dominant in the company and the level of their engagement and Regression analysis was used to assess the effects of organizational culture on the employees’ engagement. The study shows that there is positive relationship between most of the organizational culture (Clan culture, Market culture and Hierarchy culture) and employees’ engagement. However, a significant effect was not identified for Adhocracy culture on employees engagement. Thus, Clan culture is the most dominant organizational culture traits with beta value 0.371, followed by Hierarchy culture (B=.213), Market culture (B=.148) and Adhocracy culture (B=.064). The significance level of Clan culture, Hierarchy culture, Market culture, Adhocracy culture is 000, .004, .046 and.366 respectively. This implies that there is statistically significant relationship between all cultures and the employee’s engagement with the exception of Adhocracy culture. Therefore, the null hypotheses related to Hierarchy culture, Market culture, Clan culture, were rejected and Adhocracy culture was accepted. Based on the findings, the study recommends that Heineken brewery share company should focus on other Cultural Aspects: Since adhocracy culture does not seem to impact engagement, explore other cultural dimensions such as Clan Culture: Emphasizing a family-like environment, with a focus on collaboration, communication, and employee development. Market Culture: Focus on competitiveness, goal achievement, and productivity which might resonate better with the employees.
