Abstract
"Considering its impact, organizational culture has emerged as a vital concept in organizational devel opment. Although diagnosing organizational culture appears as one of the organizational change strate gies for organizational development, it is a challeng ing undertaking. The dearth in the evaluation of the organizational culture of the public sector, especially in Nigeria, motivated this study with the aim of evalu ating the organizational culture of the Kwara State public health sector using the Competing Value Framework (CVF). Significantly, there is mounting pressure on the state’s health sector to improve its service delivery, which is likewise strained by the ef fort to contain COVID-19 incidents. Hence, to assess the organizational culture and identify the areas of improvement for an effective proposed organiza tional reform, this study collected data by adminis tering questionnaires to 256 participants. The study found that the prevailing culture is inter nally oriented and it manifests the typical culture of many public institutions. The evaluation of the cur rent and preferred organizational culture is impor tant to identify and create the needed change and most importantly foster a successful organizational transformation in the reality of many failed reforms. Conclusively, a successful change is anticipated to achieve the national goal of the health sector iden tified as one of the global sustainable development goals. "
期刊介绍：
TRAS represents a collective effort initiated by an international group aimed at boosting the research in the field of public administration in a country where during the communist regime there was no tradition in this sense. TRAS represents a unique source of specialized analysis of the ex-communist space, of the transition processes to democracy, of the reform of public administration, and of comparative analysis of administrative systems. The general topic covered by the articles in the Review is administrative sciences. As a result of an interdisciplinary, modern approach, the articles cover the following specific themes: Public management, public policy, administrative law, public policy analysis, regional development, community development, public finances, urban planning, program evaluation in public administration, ethics, comparative administrative systems, etc. TRAS encourages the authors to submit articles that are based on empirical research. From the standpoint of the topic covered, TRAS is lined up with the trends followed by other international journals in the field of public administration. All articles submitted to the Transylvanian Review of Administrative Sciences have to present a clear connection to the field of administrative sciences and the research (both theoretical and empirical) should be conducted from this perspective. Interdisciplinary topics related to organizational theory, sustainable development and CSR, international relations, etc. can be considered for publication, however the research needs to address relevant issues from the perspective of the public sector. Articles which use highly specialized econometrics models as well as studies addressing macro-economic topics will not be considered for evaluation. The decision on whether a certain topic falls within the interest of TRAS belongs to the editors and it is not connected with the overall quality of the work submitted.
