Quote:
Ilies & Gavrea stated (2008 p322)
“One of the most important reasons that explain the interest in organizational culture is the
assumption
that certain organizational cultures lead to an increase in organizational financial performance.
According to
Peters and Waterman (1982) successful organizations possess certain cultural traits of excellence.
Ouchi
(1981) showed a positive relationship between organizational culture and productivity”.
Question:
What is Organisational Culture and how does it lead to strong org performance? When does culture lead
to
strong performance? Why does organizational culture sometimes not lead to strong performance? Is
organisational culture really an important source of competitive advantage?
