Corporate Culture

Paper Summary:

Interest in corporate culture is not a new issue. As early as 1939, analysts began noting that informal organizational structures were an important part of the work environment, and often determined the success of companies more (or at least as much as) formal structures (Ogbonna & Harris 39). While scholars and social scientists are typically those who conduct formal analysis of workplace culture, any employee in any organization both contributes to that company's culture, and is also affected by that culture.

"Introduction
Interest in corporate culture is not a new issue. As early as 1939, analysts began noting that informal organizational structures were an important part of the work environment, and often determined the success of companies more (or at least as much as) formal structures (Ogbonna & Harris 39). While scholars and social scientists are typically those who conduct formal analysis of workplace culture, any employee in any organization both contributes to that company's culture, and is also affected by that culture. Given this mutually dependent relationship, it is no surprise that an increasing amount of attention has been paid to corporate cultures in recent years. This research examines the concept of corporate cultures and how culture affects communication within an organization."
