Abstract

As for now, the concept of organisational culture is a highly debated topic in the academic environment, developing with rapid ascent from defining the term to being the subject of various studies that investigate the correlation between organisational culture and organisational performance, as well as ways to improve the financial indicators by changing the culture at the enterprise level. Speaking of enterprise management in the Republic of Moldova, the organisational culture is not regarded as a technique to improve organisational performance yet. Therefore, a study was conducted in order to identify methods to improve the organisational culture of autochthonous enterprises. The results made it obvious that within the organisations from the Republic of Moldova, while employees would prefer a clan type organisational culture, the hierarchical culture prevails. Consequently, the need to address this problem and come with solutions to facilitate the development of adhocracy and clan organisational culture elements arises, which contribute to increasing organisational commitment and civic behaviour, encouraging creative thinking and innovation.
