Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyze the norms, values and beliefs present in the culture of a public organization in the department of Bolivar based on the model of Denison et al (1995), which proposes four dimensions: involvement, consistency, adaptability, and mission. The methodology used is quantitative with a descriptive-analytical approach, the primary source of the study were two groups or types of employees (officers and service provision order) of a public organization. The results obtained based on the comparative analysis show that the group of collaborators considered official employees show a greater sense of belonging and commitment to the organization, while the other group of employees by service provision order do not reach the same level of commitment to the organization. It should also be noted that, in reference to the capacity development indicator, the two groups show a high degree of nonconformity, which is evidence of a pending task to be developed by the organization analyzed.
