Abstract
The current research aims towards determining the correlation between organizational culture
and firm performance. The ultimate purpose of the organizations is to maximize profit, generate
revenues and gain competitive advantages. Challenges arise constantly when it comes to
establishing positive and healthy organizational culture that ensures improved firm performance.
Support and coordination from the ones within the organization followed by lack of transparency
are major challenges that arise when it comes to building appropriate organizational culture.
Positivism philosophy, deductive approach, descriptive design and survey research strategy has
been used. Hence, 30 employees has been selected using probability sampling technique for
surveying them in order to know how positive organizational culture impacts the performance of
the firm. As a result, primary data collection process and quantitative data analysis technique has
been used where the response of the employees is interpreted in percentages and the presented
using bar graphs and charts.
From the data analysis, it can be said that the employees agree that organizational culture is
correlated with firm performance. The employees believe that positive and healthy culture within
the organization has been effective for them. The employees have felt motivated, committed and
highly engaged towards their roles and responsibilities if the culture within the organization is
positive. The existing resources of the organizations are also used effectively and contribute in
achieving the organizational goals and objectives successfully.
