<br/><br/> ABSTRACT<br/>This study investigated the effect of organizational culture on employee performance <br/>using work motivation as a mediator in NASSIT-a leading national social security and <br/>insurance organization in Sierra Leone. The study utilized a survey research method <br/>and gathered the information and data to investigate the impact of organizational <br/>culture and motivation on employee performance. The survey covered a sample of 250 <br/>employees of NASSIT to whom the questionnaire instrument was administered for 5 <br/>days before the collection of the completed questionnaires from the respondents. The <br/>data was analyzed using an SPSS version 21 package. The study discovered that, there <br/>has been an existence of organizational culture and motivational dimensions in <br/>NASSIT and that these dimensions have a positive impact on employee performance <br/>on the individual as well as on a collective basis as underscored by the responses of <br/>the respondents and the regression results. This study made several recommendations <br/>amongst which include: that managers of organizations should provide their <br/>employees with adequate organizational culture and work motivation packages to <br/>achieve improved employee performance and by extension organizational <br/>performance. The study further recommends that future research in the subject matter <br/>or other related studies may use this study as a reference material in assessing in <br/>particular the effects of organizational culture through motivation on employee <br/>performance by using other organizations in various economic sectors, enlarging the <br/>sample size and using different research methods. <br/>Keywords: Dimensions, Employee performance, Motivation, Organizational <br/>Culture.<br/>
