The current research seeks to explain the relationship between organizational culture and decision styles in
order to provide a model for effective decision styles in different organizational cultures. In fact, the main
question is that "is there any relationship between using different decision styles and organization
efficiency", and if the answer is yes, which model com show this relationship? And, "is that model applied in
the statistical universe in the some manner?' Also, problems concerning the decision style of managers which
as a concealed but important and in fluential factor has not been sufficiently examined yet, and identifying
decision styles among managers of statistical universe are the other key questions Pursued in this research.
Studies on 61 organizations in Khorasan Razavi Province show that there are relationships between
different decision styles (e.g. Directive, analytical, behavioral, conceptual) and various organizational
cultures (e.g. Role, power, support, achievement) as follows:
- In organizations with a role culture, there is a direct and meaningful correlation between analytical
decision style and performance.
- In organizations with a power culture, there is a direct and meaningful correlation between directive
decision style and performance.
- In organizations with a support culture, there is a direct and meaningful correlation between behavioral
decision style and performance.
- In organizations with an achievement culture, there is a direct and, meaningful correlation between
conceptual decision style and performance.
Given that in role culture and in power culture, both the analytical and directive decision styles have a
direct meaningful correlation with performance on one hand, and on the other hand descriptive findings
show that wherever there is a role culture, one finds a power culture too, and finally the observations and
interviews of researcher in organization included in statistical universe, the researcher decided to categorize
the above tow cultures under one label and the relevant two decision styles under one label too; thus with the
approval of the knowledgeable experts, I chose the label of dominance-oriented culture instead of the role
and power cultures and the label of pragmatic decision-making style in place both analytical and directive
decision styles.
In fact, the dominance- oriented culture is the organizational culture that is characterized by role and power
features simultaneously and has the most frequency in statistical universe; the pragmatic decision-making
style is one which is formed by combining directive and analytical styles; i.e., it is vertical, rational and
hierarchic from the thinking style point of view and is power- oriented from the other dimension point of
view
