What is corporate culture? Why should management actively take part in creating it? Why don’t externally imposed standards work? Using examples from the lives of Russian companies, the author shows how corporate culture helps boost motivation, improve coordination between departments, and focus everyone on a common result. There are many misconceptions about corporate culture, the most dangerous of which are discussed in detail in this book. The book is primarily aimed at owners and top managers of companies—those who shape an organization’s corporate culture. The publication will also be of interest to organizational consultants and students.
