Abstract: The organisational culture can be perceived as an unseen 'power' behind some tangible and easily noticeable phenomena within an organization. Specialists have reached the conclusion that it stands for the social energy which makes people act. We won't go wrong if we compare the organisational culture of an entity with the character of one of its component, with a series of obvious and less obvious aspects but which generate the vision, the meaning, the way and energy necessary to evolve. In our opinion, these arguments call for the necessity to study organisations' cultural dimensions. The present study has been conducted in the pattern of an organisation within the hospitality industry.
