Abstract

This paper aims to review a number of studies on organisational culture and organisational commitment. However, only articles published from 2012-2017 were reviewed. The reviewed literatures showed different conclusions. Most of the studies confirmed that strong significant interactions exist among organisational culture and organisational commitment but in some the association is weak. Other studies showed no association among organisational culture and organisational commitment. This controversy of conclusions emanates from differences in methodology; countries conducted the study and the number of respondents and observations. Therefore, this paper contributed to the understanding the mechanisms through which organisational culture affect organisational commitment by incorporating the concept of different organisational factors. Organisations can retain committed and motivated workforce through fostering a strong culture, which can support employees’ affective commitment to the organisation.
