“…By implementing an acceptable culture, academic staff have common goals, values and beliefs that eventually boost their emotional attachment to the university and help them remain committed and loyal to it. The finding coincides with Aji et al (2017), Hamidi et al (2017) and Pratama et al (2020), who link organisational commitment levels to espoused OC. Thus, universities operating in today's highly dynamic environment can guarantee their long-term prosperity by embracing cultures that promote positive interactions, the free flow of information, equity and fairness, flexibility and establishing rewards to boost academic staff's spirit and emotions and help them understand that they are important to their institutions.…”

“…Existing literature indicates that organisational commitment is influenced by several factors such organisational culture (OC) (Aji et al, 2017;Hamidi et al, 2017) and self-efficacy (Demir, 2020;Yoon et al, 2018). In pursuit of quality education, the culture embedded in the university plays a crucial role particularly in bridging the internal and external environment (Senjaya and Anindita, 2020).…”

PurposeThis study aims at establishing the moderating role of self-efficacy in the relationship between organisational culture (OC) and organisational commitment in the perspective of institutions of higher learning in a developing country.Design/methodology/approachA cross-sectional design was used to obtain quantitative data from 572 academic staff in eight universities. The sample was selected following a simple random technique. The study data were analysed using SPSS version 23.FindingsThe study findings reveal that OC and self-efficacy influence organisational commitment. Further, self-efficacy moderates the relationship between OC and organisational commitment.Practical implicationsUniversities should foster a culture that emphasises collaboration, open communication, inclusion, equity and staff development to increase organisational commitment. In order to build academic staff self-efficacy, universities should provide opportunities for training and development, mentoring, coaching, continuous performance evaluation, and regular feedback to stimulate academic staff's desire to remain committed to the institution. University administrators should look beyond traditional skills and competencies when recruiting future academic staff as their personal beliefs are essential to accelerating organisational commitment.Originality/valueThis study extends the current literature in organisational behaviour and provides a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between OC and organisational commitment using the Competing Values Framework. This study was also conducted in a developing country context, which can always lead to different results than studies conducted in developed countries.

Background Organizational culture affects nurse educators’ psychological empowerment. Limited research exists on the organizational culture and psychological empowerment in nursing educational environments and about the type of organizational factors affecting nurse educators’ psychological empowerment. Aim To explore nurse educators’ perceived organizational factors that affect their psychological empowerment. Methods A qualitative descriptive exploratory study was drawn from a larger sequential exploratory‐mixed‐methods study. Semi‐structured interviews were conducted with 12 educators with both clinical and educational experience. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results We generated three themes: poor organizational structure, dynamics of educators–academic administrators’ relations, and educational tools and physical environment. The educators perceived factors were poor organizational structure, lack of collaboration across institutions and regulatory bodies, condescending attitudes of administrators and educators toward novice educators, limited teaching aids and scholarly resources, poorly defined roles, and underdeveloped and inconsistent curricula. Conclusions The identified organizational factors should be addressed to enhance educators’ psychological empowerment so that they can effectively teach students. Emphasis should be placed on developing collaboration among educators, academic administrators, and regulatory bodies to address these factors. Further quantitative research is warranted to assess the degree and strength of association of these factors with psychological empowerment.

Even though educators are aware of the essential role they play in nation building, which requires a high level of commitment, their commitment to their organizations is only moderate.…”
