Abstract

This study tests the moderating effects of a strong vision on the relationship between organizational culture and the strategic planning process, and the relationship between organizational culture and commitment. The data used in this study was obtained from a Fortune 100 multinational corporation, which had recently undergone a major strategic transformation. The results supported a strong moderating effect of vision. Specifically, the results suggest that if management can create a more favorable organizational culture and strategic vision, the more willing they would be to encourage participation in the strategic planning process, and the more committed they would be to the organization.
