Globalization and innovation are two important concepts through-out various organizations and institutions that serve as driving forces producing great changes in the society. In order to surpass these external environmental challenges and demands, such as, political, economic, social and technological factors, the organizations’ goals and strategies should consistently align with each other. Successful organizations use several components, such as, employee partnership, self-empowered work teams and participation to dynamically adapt to their environment. As such, educational institutions should not be exempted. In addition, the researcher has observed the successes and failures of many institutions partly due to the impact of culture on the business management style of the institution. Universities being run as business organizations have the potential to be innovative and successful based on its cultural environment. However, despite the positivity of the impact of culture on universities, culture also has the great risks of causing failure of universities. As such, “Perceptions of the Impact of Culture on Universities’ Success as Business Entities” is derived as the Dissertation topic. The research seeks to investigate the correlation between culture and the success of universities. One recommendation of the study includes the necessity to carry out the research with a much larger group of participants of national cultures. This would help the results of the study to be of more significant value and hence present universities leaders with a better understanding on the impact of culture on their institutions.
