Organisation culture develops overtime to cope up with such dynamic changes and meet the varying demand of employee expectations and satisfaction which in turn influence the employee's performance. The study analyses the influence of organisation culture on employee's performance with a focus on Kalangala District Local Government (KDLG). It has offered recommendations on what can be done to achieve optimum performance while adopting the right culture. The study employed a descriptive research design with the target population comprising of a random sample of 127 members of staff from the organization at different levels. The data has been collected using questionnaires, interview guides and focus group discussions and analysed using a 5 point likert scale, to determine whether organisation culture really affects the employee's performance. The researcher has provided an introduction letter from the university as assurance that the information would be treated with maximum confidentiality, as reluctance to provide some personal information was an anticipated limitation of the study. Collected data was analysed using SPSS software and data represented in graphs, charts and tables for better understanding and interpretation. Since employee's performance is one of the important factors for competion in this global market, the purpose of this study is to explain the effect of the four elements of Organisation culture namely; organisation values, management styles and work processes to the employee's performance. The results of this study suggest that managers should focus on the factors that have a significant effect on employee performance, if they want to enhance their service delivery. The sophisticated and extensive nature of the research added value to the organization stud ies discipline by providing an important qualitative perception towards organizational culture and employee performance and initiated further discussions to create an effective framework between organizational culture and its impact on performance.
