ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE PERSPECTIVES AND STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT IN THE NIGERIA MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY
This study investigates the cultural perspectives and strategic management among manufacturing firms in Nigeria, with the specific objective of evaluating the relationship between culture and strategic management. The study was conducted among cement manufacturing firms in Ogun State. This study adopted a survey research design. A total of 194 employees were sampled out of 375 employees using a simple random sampling technique. Structured questionnaire was employed to collect data from respondents. The primary data generated from the questionnaire administered to respondents were used to test the hypothesis formulated for this study. Linear and multiple regression methods of data analyses were employed to verify the hypothesis formulated for the study. The analysis was carried out at 5% level of significance representing maximum probability attached to the test of risking type I error. The results revealed that there was significant relationship between culture and strategic management (R = 0.563; p < 0.05). Based on the findings above, it was concluded that culture had significant effect on strategic management in manufacturing sector of Nigeria. The study, therefore recommends that there was the need to consider the effect of the ethnic composition of the workplace due to the increasing number of ethnic minority employees in the labour force. The study also concludes that for many organisations today, culturally diverse workplaces are an increasing reality. However, individuals often struggle in these workplaces, despite the need to meet personal and organisational objectives.
