The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of the organizational culture of a business higher education institution on student motivation. From a theoretical point of view, motivation results from the relationship between subjective factors and external conditions, such as the organization to which the student is associated. Therefore, a quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out with 263 students from an Iese located in southern Brazil. The results show that the most valued factors of organizational culture are cooperative professionalism and external integration. Also, organizational culture directly influences the autonomous motivation of students and acts as an external regulator, suggesting important pedagogical and managerial implications.
