Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to examine the impact of organizational culture on the efficiency of internal control and the performance of private higher education institutions in Thailand. A questionnaire was utilized as the research tool to gather information from administrators and supervisors involved in the accounting work of these institutions. The data was collected from a population of 73 locations, and a total of 58 places responded, resulting in a response rate of 79.45 percent. Private higher education institutions in Thailand exhibit a diverse range of organizational cultures, including role-based culture, work-oriented culture, leadership culture, and a cultural aspect that emphasizes individual independence at a similar level. The results of hypothesis testing indicate that the efficiency of internal control within an organization significantly influences the performance of private higher education institutions in Thailand.
Specifically, the work-oriented culture, culture emphasizing individual independent roles, and leadership culture all have an impact on performance. Furthermore, both the culture emphasizing individual independent roles and leadership culture also affect the efficiency of internal control. Ultimately, the research findings demonstrate that the effectiveness of internal control plays a crucial role as an intermediary variable between organizational culture factors and the performance of private higher education institutions in Thailand
