Abstract: Organizational culture is an idea in the field of Organizational studies and management which describes the psychology, attitudes, experiences, beliefs and values (personal and cultural values) of an organization. Black Richard has defined organizational culture as the specific collection of values and norms that are shared by people and groups in an organization and that control the way they interact with each other and with stakeholders outside the organization. Company size and formalized human resource practices have a negative effect on employee perceptions of an innovation-supportive culture. Corporate culture is the total sum of the values, customs, traditions and meanings that make a company unique. Thus, corporate culture is connected with globalization. Globalization is a complex and growing phenomenon, affecting all the entities, small or large. Senior management may try to determine a corporate culture. They may wish to impose corporate values and standards of behavior that specifically reflect the objectives of the organization. In addition, there will also be an extant internal culture within the workforce.
