An Empirical Study on the Impact of Organizational Culture on Organizational Citizenship Behavior with Affective Commitment as a Mediator

This study investigates organizational culture and affective commitment as drivers of organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs) among employees in philanthropic organizations in Indonesia.Survey data from 304 employees across ten nonprofits found that culture directly enhanced OCBs and commitment.However, affective commitment did not mediate the culture to OCB relationship, contrasting past studies in other contexts.Unique generosity values embedded in philanthropic cultures can independently spur helpful, extrarole behaviors from employees regardless of emotional attachment levels.Discussion centers on theoretical and practical implications specific to stimulating OCB within nonprofit contexts to strengthen organizational functioning.
