The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of the introduction of 'business performance evaluation program' on the changes in organizational culture and employee commitment. The data for this study were collected three times, in 2006, 2008, and 2009 from the employees at a public hospital in Korea. The main findings of this study are as follows. 1. Organizational culture has gradually changed as the 'business performance evaluation program' was introduced and implemented. Regarding the changes in the different type of culture, we can see that group culture, developmental culture and rational culture has been stronger and, on the other hand, the introduction of 'the program' did not have as much impact on the hierarchical culture as on the other types of culture. 2. The group culture has have more impact on the organizational commitment than other types of culture. In case of the hierarchical culture, however, statistically significant relationships could not be found between the organizational commitment and the introduction of business performance evaluation program.

As the environment related to hospital operation has changed very competitively in recent years, a need to reform the hospital management is ever growing. For that reason, it has become more urgent and strategically important for us to diagnose the organizational culture of the hospitals and to make efforts to change them towards more performance- and customers-oriented one. So far, there have been many studies done on the hospital organizations. However, this research distinctively attempts to base itself on the competing values approach in studying the organizational culture and empirically examine how different profiles of the organizational culture may have an impact on the organizational performances in hospital organizations. The results of this study has showed several interesting findings and posed the discussions to be dealt with. First, most hospitals selected for this research are characterized by the inner-oriented culture with more focused on 'hierarchy' and 'relationship-oriented' culture rather than on 'reform' and 'work-oriented' one. And the strong 'hierarchy-oriented' culture is a very general phenomenon in the sample hospitals. From these findings, we can inference that despite the recent efforts of most Korean hospitals for organizational change and innovation they still have long distance way to go. In addition, another important implications of this research has come from the analysis of the relationships between the cultural profiles and organizational performances. For this purpose, this research has conducted a series of cluster analysis and identified four distinct cultural profiles from the sample organizations. Several major findings are as follows. First, with respect to the dependent variable of 'job satisfaction' perceived by the nurses working in the sample hospitals, we found that the balance of competing organizational values had more positive impact on the job satisfaction. This result confirms the hypothesis of competing values model on the organizational performances. However, such result was not replicated on the other dependent variable, 'patients' satisfaction'. The reasons for these results and other discussions including the limitations of this study are suggested.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the awareness of medical institution employees of their organizational culture and conflicts, as well as the influence of organizational culture on organizational conflict, in an attempt to provide some information on the preparation of organizational conflict management methods for medical institutions. Methods: Structured questionnaires and basic hospital data were used to gather data from the employees of medical institutions. The collected data were analyzed, using SPSS 24.0. Results: First, workers whose length of employment was longer were less aware of the characteristics of their organizational culture, while employees who were older, whose length of employment was longer, and who were middle managers experienced greater organizational conflict. Second, in terms of conflicts among different kinds of occupations, conflicts with nurses were the most common. Third, there was a negative correlation between organizational culture and organizational conflict. Conclusions: As stronger awareness of the characteristics of organizational culture leads to less organizational conflict, the organizational culture of each medical institution should be created and strengthened.

본 연구는 종합병원에 근무하는 직원들의 조직문화인식이 조직신뢰 활동에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 병원조직 관리에 필요한 기초 자료를 제시하고자 하였다. 연구방법은 G시에 소재한 5개 종합병원 종사자 437명을 대상으로 무기명 자기입식 설문지 조사법을 사용하여 t-검정과 분산분석, 피어슨 상관분석, 다중회귀 분석하였다. 연구결과 조직신뢰 문화에 대한 인식에서는 성별, 나이, 학력, 소득수준에서 차이를 보였고, 조직 신뢰 문화 인식과 조직신뢰 활동은 유의한 정적 상관관계가 있었다. 조직신뢰 활동에 미치는 요인으로는 배려성과 사회적 책임, 도덕성, 역량등이 유의미한 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 이러한 연구를 바탕으로 병원조직 차원에서 조직신뢰 문화를 향상하기 위해 병원조직 차원에서 정책적, 제도적으로 지원함으로써 병원종사자들이 인식하는 조직신뢰가 향상될 것으로 생각된다.
