Organizational culture and engagement: the case of an institution of higher education
Abstract
Organizational culture has determined the behavior of individuals in companies, forging a collective personality that numerous studies have shown to influence the behavior and productivity of workers. For this reason, administrative sciences have placed special interest in its study, in order to determine its impact on topics of human behavior such as leadership, teamwork, and social cohesion, among others. This research has a quantitative approach, with a correlational scope and a cross-sectional non-experimental design and its research objective is: To explain the influence of Organizational Culture on the engagement of the workers of the Tecnológico Nacional de México, according to the models of Cameron and Quinn (2006) and Salanova et al. (2000) respectively. For this, a questionnaire was applied to a statistical sample of 297 workers with a 96% confidence level and a 4% margin of error. With the information collected, 45 linear regression models were built, finding statistically significant evidence of the influence of the predictor variable on the dependent variable, with r2 correlation values between 0.251 and 0.319, highlighting the case of the Dedication dimension of engagement as the of greater influence by the independent variable. In addition, it is observed that the clan-type culture is the one that presents a greater influence on the three dimensions of the dependent variable.
