Abstract

In this paper, we study the influence of corporate culture on employee commitment. This study is based on a survey of 289 employees, managers, and company leaders in Hanoi and Vinh City, Vietnam. We used Cronbach’s alpha and EFA for preliminary assessments, CFA for testing whether the actual data fit a hypothesized measurement model, and SEM for checking the theoretical model. The collected data have been analyzed with SPSS 23 and AMOS 23 to assess the suitability of the research model, to test the relationships, and to assess the reliability and validity of measurement scales for evaluating the influence of the corporate culture on all aspects of employee commitment: affective commitment, normative commitment, and continuance commitment. The results show that our model is in very good accordance with the data.
