Abstract: Purpose. This paper aims to assess the organizational culture exposed by small and medium-sized companies (SMEs). In other words, we examine the relationship between leadership styles, organizational culture and organizational performance. In order to investigate the role of organizational culture, it is fundamental to analyze the leadership styles in relation to the types of culture, to identify how these are related and well aligned so that they can help the SMEs to be more effective, favoring their innovativeness. Therefore, we like to address the issue of organizational alignment as well, which occurs when employees and leadership are on the same page regarding an organization’s purposes and core values.
