Abstract :
This study aims to investigate the effect of organizational culture on market performance with respect to the role of social responsibility and corporate reputation. The research method is descriptive-survey and correlational. The statistical population of this study is all employees of Shiraz municipality in eleven districts of the municipality. Using the random cluster sampling method, 150 municipal employees were selected as a sample. Data collection tools included the standard Cameron and Quinn (1990) Organizational Culture Questionnaire, Carroll & Shabana (2010), Fumbron et al. (2004), Chery et al. (2014) and Azizi's financial performance (2017). The validity of the questionnaires was assessed and evaluated by the content method and structural validity method by factor analysis technique. The reliability of the questionnaires was confirmed using Cronbach's alpha and the collected data were analyzed using SPSS and PLS software. The results showed that organizational culture has a positive and significant effect on various aspects of corporate social responsibility (employees, customers, environment, and local institutions) and organizations that use the method of social responsibility related to employees and customers strengthen their company reputation.
