dc.description.abstractPrivate security firms such as KK Security Company are registered private corporation companies that specialize in providing contract commercial services to domestic and foreign entities with the intent to protect personnel and humanitarian and industrial assets within the rule of applicable domestic law. This study set out to find out the effects of organization culture on strategic alignment. The objectives were: to determine the effect of working environment on strategic alignment in private security companies; to determine the effect of employees‟ commitment to learning of the organization culture on strategic alignment in private security companies; to establish the effect of employees‟ values on strategic alignment in private security companies. The study employed descriptive research design. The population of KK Security deployed in Nairobi was 1156, from which a sample size of 115 employees was drawn. The study adopted questionnaires for data collection. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21 was used to analyze the data. The findings revealed that the work environment was important in the security firm. The firm allowed for personal freedom for the employees, who enhanced confidence. Employees‟ commitment to learning of the organization culture also effected strategic alignment in firms. It was evident that KK Security offered training programs to its employees to enhance learning of its organizational culture. As the findings suggested, the knowledge of organization culture improved performance by the staff, increased businesses and revenues, and greater customer satisfaction. This study recommends that security companies should create a good working environment for their employees. Security firms should create a sound organization culture that would be in line with their business strategies.en_US
