Corporate Culture

Abstract

The study of corporate culture is a valuable contribution to the study of organisations. Corporate culture consists of values, norms, feelings, hopes and aspirations held by members of organisations. These aspects may not be instantly discernible; however, it is important that managers are aware of culture; a shared culture contributes greatly to company success. The article concludes that managers can manage culture and cultural change by becoming more aware of the deeper assumptions of culture and how they are upheld.
