Unpacking Organisational Culture through Psychological and Social Lenses: Exploring the moderating roles of Spirituality and Social Support

Abstract

In the framework of modern education, especially in the Indian educational system, teachers' psychological health and adaptability are becoming more widely acknowledged as essential elements of a successful learning environment. These circumstances call for a more thorough comprehension of the character attributes and outside resources that support educators in remaining resilient and adaptive when confronted with challenges in their line of work. Thus, the present study aims to investigate the influence of cognitive flexibility and hardiness on organizational culture among Indian school teachers, further examining the moderating roles of spirituality and perceived social support. A cross-sectional design was employed with a sample of 122 teachers from various schools in parts of Delhi-NCR, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana, India. The analysis was done using SPSS and AMOS for descriptives, correlation and moderation analysis respectively. The findings underscore the complex dynamics between individual psychological resources and organizational culture in educational contexts. It lays directions for future scope of work, implications for teacher development, organizational practices, and any possible policy changes that may aid the institutions at large.
