Higher education organizations can benefit from the understanding of culture in order to outline strategies to deal with the intense competition of the market. Methodologically, we used the quantitative approach, descriptive research, case study and non-probabilistic sample for convenience. In the process of organizational culture identification, the Cameron and Quinn (1999) OCAI questionnaire was applied to a sample of 74 people, including faculty and administrative staff. The research data revealed a great disparity between current and desirable culture, since while current culture shows that the predominant culture is of the hierarchical type, the desirable one envisions clan-type, with less focus on bureaucracy and control, for a more flexible and dynamic environment. The results of the research suggest organizational change and the strengthening of clan culture.   KEYWORDS: Organizational Culture; Predominant Culture; IES; OCAI instrument.     RESUMEN Este estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar la cultura predominante en una institución de educación superior en el estado de Tocantins.

Lauren A. Turner and A. J. Angulo explore how institutional theory can be applied to explain variance in higher education organizational strategies. Given strong regulatory, normative, and cultural-cognitive pressures to conform, they ask, why do some colleges engage in high-risk decision making? To answer this, they bring together classic and contemporary approaches to institutional theory and propose an integrated model for understanding outlier higher education strategies. The integrated model offers a heuristic for analyzing external and internal pressures that motivate colleges to implement nontraditional strategies. Through an analysis of recent trends among outlier colleges and their approaches to the Scholastic Aptitude Test, Turner and Angulo contextualize the model and consider its potential for understanding why higher education organizations adopt characteristics that differentiate them from their peers.

Two of the more promising lines of inquiry in efforts to understand the hypothesized linkage between organizational culture and effectiveness have focused on the differential effectiveness of organizations depending on their dominant culture type and their culture strength. The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether these two lines of inquiry operate in an independent or conditional manner in explaining the hypothesized linkage between organizational culture and the performance of a sample of four-year colleges and universities. The findings provide support for both lines of inquiry, albeit not entirely in a manner suggested by their respective proponents. For example, while culture type has a decidedly stronger independent effect on institutional performance than culture strength, the differences are clearly more pronounced on campuses with “strong” rather than “weak” cultures. The implications of these findings for research on and efforts to improve the performance of colleges and universities are discussed.
