Abstract
Purpose: This study analyzes the impact of organizational culture, cultural types, and cultural strength on school effectiveness. Previous research highlights the significance of culture in school effectiveness; however, this topic has not been extensively explored, necessitating a closer examination of various organizational cultures and their strengths. Method: These relationships were investigated using the school population in the Colombian coffee region. Our sample included 698 instructors and school boards from 25 educational institutions at the primary, middle, and high school levels. A regression analysis was conducted to test the hypotheses. Results and Discussions: The findings suggest that organizational culture and cultural strength significantly influence school effectiveness, with the levels of cultural strength corresponding to school effectiveness; however, no evidence was found of differences in impact based on cultural typology. Clan and hierarchical cultures, which have an internal orientation and are the most prevalent in Colombian organizations, exhibited more positive and significant relationships. Conclusions: School boards should familiarize themselves with the norms, values, and customs prevalent in educational institutions, particularly those that align most closely with their objectives. This approach can improve school effectiveness and, consequently, educational quality.
