Abstract

This dissertation employed a non-experimental quantitative research method to examine the relationship between organizational culture and perceptions of Information and Communication Technology implementation project success in higher education institutions. The study used Sociotechnical Systems Theory to frame the higher education institution’s work system and the Competing Values Framework (CVF) in distinguishing the cultures of the institution, its colleges/divisions, and its departments to determine if differences in culture tendencies impacted faculty, staff, and administrators’ perception of project success. A survey consisting of the Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI, © Kim Cameron) and a Project Success scale was used to gather data. The OCAI scoring algorithm, exploratory factor analysis, and linear regression analysis were used to analyze the data. In addition to uncovering the culture and subculture types of participating institutions, analysis of the data revealed a relationship between the CVF Market Culture type and project success ((β=-.95, p<.05), and between the CVF Hierarchical Culture type and project success (β=-.70, p<.10), both at the college/division organizational level only.
