Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the dimensions
of organizational culture and employee job satisfaction at Islamic Azad University
(IAU) which is located at Iran, region one. The population comprised of all employees
of 31 branches of IAU located at region one. Data was collected by structured
questionnaire, designed based on the Robbins’ 10 criteria indexes, through 550
respondents who selected randomly through clustering sampling. Two types of
statistical testing were employed, descriptive and inferential statistics. Correlation
analysis was used to test the relationships between dimensions of organizational
cultures with job satisfaction. The results showed that there is a significant and positive
relationship between organization identity, managerial support, risk taking ability,
participation, organizational communication, control and organizational integration
with job satisfaction. However, the relationship between individual creativity, conflict,
and reward system with job satisfaction was not supported in this study. The result of
this study is useful for managers to increase productivity in the company by the factors
of organizational culture.
