Respondents’ number of search engines used posted a significant relationship with the Culture of Inclusion, Culture of Wondering, and Culture of developing. The respondents’ leadership styles posted highly significant correlations with all the dimensions of organizational culture except for the Laissez-faire leadership factor and Culture of Reinvention which only posted significant correlation.
