An Exploration of Industry, Culture and Revenue Growth
研究了77家六类行业企业的组织文化实践与收入增长的关系,发现文化对绩效的影响因行业而异,且行业内收入增长差异与行业典型文化实践不同。
This study is an exploration of industry moderated relationships between organizational culture, as manifested in practices, and revenue-growth among seventy-seven firms in six industry types. Beginning with the premise that organizational practices are shaped by organizational culture and industry demands, it is proposed that the culture-performance link is industry contingent. The results corroborate the existence of cultural practices that are industry or `industry type' specific, and that variations in revenue growth within industry types are associated with practices different from those characterizing the industry-type culture. The implications for both culture research and organizational management are discussed.
