is one of the rarely studied topics in non-western cultures, and none in
Ethiopia. Hence, this study explores whistleblowing and the contribution of
organizational culture (OC) types on different modes of whistleblowing
intentions in Ethiopia along with cross-cultural comparison of the theoretical
model in Turkey.  </span> </p> <p> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-left:-.25pt;"> <b> <span style="font-size:8pt;line-height:103%;">Methodology- </span> </b> <span style="font-size:8pt;line-height:103%;">Totally 528 employees (Ethiopia, N=274 and Turkey, N=254) were selected
as participants. Four organizational culture types and six dimensions of
whistleblowing are measured using a multidimensional questionnaire with
five-point interval scale. </span> </p> <p> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-left:-.25pt;"> <b> <span style="font-size:8pt;line-height:103%;">Findings- </span> </b> <span style="font-size:8pt;line-height:103%;">Analyses
revealed that hierarchical culture significantly and positively contributed to
external, anonymous, and formal whistleblowing. Alternatively, clan culture had
significant positive contribution to internal and informal whistleblowing, and
negative contribution to external whistleblowing. </span> <span style="font-size:11pt;line-height:103%;"> </span> <span style="font-size:8pt;line-height:103%;">However, there were significant variations in terms of
nationality. </span> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-left:-.25pt;"> <b style="font-size:.9em;"> <span style="font-size:8pt;line-height:103%;">Conclusion- </span> </b> <span style="font-size:8pt;line-height:103%;">The dominant
values and beliefs embedded within the culture of an organization tend to
predict the most likely preferred and accepted methods of whistleblowing in
that particular organization <b>. </b>  </span> </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;margin-left:-.25pt;"> </p> <p> </p>}, number={4}, publisher={Suat TEKER}
