" The impediments in the level of productivity of most organizations are ever increasing due to several factors, yet the management is saddled with the responsibility of achieving corporate objectives and goals attainment. Amidst this dilemma, comes the role of a strong organizational culture orientation among employees and managers. Over the years, organizational culture has been described as an embodiment of norms, shared values, beliefs and assumptions; it is therefore fundamental to employees and managers behaviour at work and this in turn influence their level of productivity. Hence, this study seeks to identify the different organizational culture types and their significance in organizational productivity. The respondents included a sample of 212 people drawn from a population of 475. A total number of 152 questionnaires were collected and analysed using the SPSS pearson correlation analysis. Findings revealed that market culture has a significant relationship with effectiveness and this implies that the efforts put in place by organizations in a bid to improve their market share translates into higher productivity levels. This was revealed at r=0.489, sig. level 0.19, p < 0.001 However, findings also revealed that the relationship between hierarchy culture and efficiency is weak and not statistically significant at r=0.328, sig. level 0.005,p < 0.001. This suggests that the hierarchy culture does not facilitate effective productivity among employees. The relationship between clan culture and efficiency revealed that efforts concentrated towards building relationship among employees such as reward for team efforts or success has a positive impact on organizational productivity at level r=0.778, sig. level 0.341,p < 0.001. The researcher recommended openness in communication to managers. Further recommendation includes managers to adequately reward employees for creativity at work especially when productivity is increased through innovation " .
