Abstract: Abstract Despite knowing that the literature on organizational culture is already deeply studied, considering the number of definitions, studies, and publications, this research intends to bring some insights by mapping the conceptual state of the art on organizational culture, presenting a review of the main concepts. An attempt was also made to highlight the influence of organizational performance leveraged by dynamic capabilities, as the impact of organizational culture on organizational performance. To allow this conceptual overview, a literature review has been performed based on papers published between the period 1966 and 2022. The research aim is to shed some more light on the link of organizational culture, dynamic capabilities’ influence, and its impact on organizational performance. Knowing the overlapping fields of organizational culture in dynamic capabilities contexts, especially in very demanding and fast-growing contexts, it is noted that dynamic capabilities have the power to leverage performance, as the fast adaptation is required to still maintain the organization's vital.
