Abstract: Nowadays, businesses recognize that organizational culture has played a particularly important role in the organization's success. This study aims to identify the cultural traits of enterprises in Thua Thien Hue province by applying the Denison organizational culture model. The results show that the organizational culture of enterprises in Thua Thien Hue province is an internal focus and in a stable and flexible balance. In addition, “Involvement” is the strongest trait, and “Adaptability” is the weakest trait of Thua Thien Hue’s enterprises.
