The concept of culture is a key issue within management and organization studies. This book provides a guide to understanding organizational culture, from a range of angles, contexts and sectors. It answers questions of definition, explores alternative perspectives, and expands on substantive issues (such as leadership and change), before discussing key issues of research and providing a new framework for this topic. The author synthesizes the advances in the field of organizational culture. He also uses examples to develop and illustrate ideas on how cultural thinking can be used in managerial and non-managerial organizational theory and (theory-supported) practice.
