โœฆ Synopsis

How useful a concept is organizational culture?

. Organizational culture has been investigated along many different lines and with many different purposes since the ยฎrst explosion of interest in the concept over 15 years ago.

. We are no closer now to understanding culture's nature and effects than we were when Peters and Waterman ยฎrst told managers that the key to corporate success lay in having a strong culture, and then proceeded to prescribe a formula for such a culture.

. The value of the culture concept to today's managers remains problematic for two main reasons: we still cannot deยฎne it; and the link between culture and performance is tenuous.

. The paper evaluates the value of the culture concept to today's managers.
