employees’ efficiency at Child Development Training and research Center. As a springboard, the
study assumed organizational culture dimensions as an independent variable and employee
efficiency as dependent variable. The dimensions of organizational culture further expressed using
Workplace environment, Trust, Teamwork and Communication. To address the main target
descriptive and explanatory type of approach was used; while a questionnaire was used to gather
primary data. The target population of the study was all staff members who are working in Addis
Ababa head office and Sendafa training center. Totally, the organization has 136 employees, so
the research used census instead of using sampling technique because of the population is small
to take out a sample out of it. The data collected from the participants analyzed using descriptive
statistical techniques such as mean score and standard deviation. In addition, the data is analyzed
using correlation and multiple linear regressions to investigate the relationship between the
variables of the study using statistical package social science version 27. Specifically, the
regression result reveals all predictor variables or organizational culture dimensions (Trust,
Teamwork, communication, workplace environment) have statistically significant contribution on
employee’s efficiency. The result shows that the four independent variables; Trust, teamwork,
communication, workplace environment) that were researched explain 55.9% of variation
employees’ performance as presented by the R2 value. The study concluded that an improved
organizational cultural practice is an increasingly essential instrument for the higher employees efficiency. Therefore, the management of the organization should enforce these four
organizational cultural dimensions as a way of improving its employees’ efficiency. |
