Abstract

Organisational culture (OC) and employee engagement (EE) are the two constructs that form the basis of this research to investigate the effect of OC on EE of government and private sector employees in India and Nigeria on a comparative basis. The study also evaluates the role of myriad demographic factors taken as independent variables on these two dependent variables. The sample of 107 participants was collected through non-probability convenience sampling using a questionnaire. The analysis of raw data was accomplished using Percentages, Simple Means, Standard Deviation, One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Levene Statistics, Pearson Chi-Square Test, Spearman’s Correlations, and Cronbach’s Alpha as statistical tools. The findings indicated many similarities as well as variances in different types of organizations vis-à-vis the relationship between OC and EE in these two countries, concluding with managerial ramifications discussed.
