Abstract: This research examines the significance of organizational culture (OC) among the staff of medical centers which are at the forefront of healthcare deliveries. It illustrates the extent to which there is a prevalence of understandable culture among the staff and demonstrates the strength of whether the subculture mirrors the dominant culture among medical and non-medical staff. To perform this analysis the sample categorized into two groups to know the strengths of association and difference between the responses of each group. It found that there is a hierarchical culture that mirrors the dominant culture the of center whereas there is no subculture which makes the employees less innovative due to their work nature. The study suggests that medical centers need to approach employee engagement in making decisions about the cultures or subcultures in an organization which will affect the employee's productivity positively.
