What are the performance appraisal ratings of the different divisions in the last rating period for Calendar Year 2023?; 3. What are the challenges encountered that affects organizational culture and performance?; and 4. What administrative plan may be proposed to address the challenges? The researcher tested the null hypothesis that there is no significant relationship between organizational culture in terms of shared values, set of beliefs, attitudes, system, and policies and performance in terms of quantity, quality, and timeliness.
