ABSTRACT
The concept of organisational culture and its role and effect on organisational performance gained a lot of popularity in the 1980s and has remained a subject matter of great interest. Scholars and organisations are interested in organisational culture for many reasons, most commonly, how it affects employee commitment, satisfaction on the job, retention, and performance. Organisational culture has a lot of implications for strategy development, implementation, and organisational performance. It is therefore little wonder that managers are also seeking to understand more and more what organisational culture is and ways to leverage it for performance.
