Organizational culture is a central concept in research due to its importance in organizational functioning and suffering of employees. To better manage suffering, it is necessary to better understand the intrinsic characteristics of each type of culture and also its relationships with the environment. In this study, we used the multiple regression analysis to analyze the capacity of eight environment variables, five business strategies, and eight organizational competencies to predict the presence of Clan, Market, and Hierarchy cultures (Cameron and Quinn, 1999) in a subsample of Spanish managers ( = 362) and a subsample of Peruvian managers ( = 1,317). Contrary to what most of the literature suggests, we found almost no relationship between the environmental variables and the culture types. Strategy and competencies, in contrast, do have a significant predictive capacity, showing 9 links with the Clan culture, 7 with the Hierarchy culture, and 10 with the Market culture. In conclusion, this study has found the important characteristics of the types of organizational culture that could be useful to better manage the suffering of employees.
组织文化是研究中的一个核心概念，因为它对组织运作和员工痛苦有着重要影响。为了更好地管理痛苦，有必要更好地理解每种文化类型的内在特征及其与环境的关系。在本研究中，我们使用多元回归分析来分析八个环境变量、五种商业策略和八种组织能力预测西班牙经理子样本（n = 362）和秘鲁经理子样本（n = 1317）中家族文化、市场文化和层级文化（卡梅隆和奎因，1999）存在情况的能力。与大多数文献所表明的情况相反，我们发现环境变量与文化类型之间几乎没有关系。相比之下，策略和能力确实具有显著的预测能力，与家族文化有9个关联，与层级文化有7个关联，与市场文化有10个关联。总之，本研究发现了组织文化类型的重要特征，这些特征可能有助于更好地管理员工的痛苦。
