Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the influence of organisational culture on employee attitudes towards organisational change in a South African state-owned enterprise. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with a random sample (n = 373) of employees at a state-owned enterprise. The Organisational Culture Questionnaire (OCQ) and the Employee Attitudes to Organisational Change Scale were evaluated. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were used to determine the influence of organisational culture on employee attitudes towards organisational change. The findings indicate that organisational culture is related positively and significantly to employees' attitudes towards organisational change. Furthermore, the results indicate that organisational culture influences employees' attitudes towards change. The findings provide new evidence that an organisation that promotes positive organisational culture practices influences employee behaviour and attitudes positively towards organisational change in a South African government organisation. Key Words:Employee attitude towards organisational change, Organisational culture, South African State-Owed Enterprise
