Description

Explore the complex relationship between corporate culture and business performance in this specialized research volume. Since the early 1980s, management experts have debated how much an organization's internal culture actually impacts its success. While many practitioners believe a strong link exists, critics often point to the flaws in current studies that rely solely on financial growth metrics to measure performance. Vaughan Coffey addresses these debates by using the construction industry as a primary subject of study. This book traces the development of existing literature and examines how organizational culture is defined and measured. By moving beyond simple financial indicators, this research provides a deeper look into how management science applies to the specific challenges of the construction sector. It is an essential resource for those studying management science, organizational behavior, or industry-specific business dynamics.
