Abstract: Many organisations in emerging countries are facing the reform in organisational structure because of the rising wave of global corporations that penetrate their market. Coping with this issue requires an understanding of the modern organisational culture of local organisations. This study aims to explore the organisational culture in Vietnamese organisations. This research adopted the four factors of competing value framework, namely clan, hierarchy, adhocracy and market. A total of 294 Vietnamese people are socialised variously on the basis of their gender, age, working experience and job title in private versus state sectors. Findings showed a significant difference in age and working experience in the current Vietnamese organisational culture. Old and experienced people are linked to market culture whereas young and newcomers are involved with clan culture. These results are valuable for organisations, superiors and practitioners who work with Vietnamese-born workers.
