“…However, firms with extensive hierarchical structures typically do not allow these power constellations. Flat hierarchies, instead, allow for power accumulation based on expertise, persuasion and similar factors (Calori/Sarnin 1991). Proposition 5a: Institutionalizing increases with an organizational culture with a flat hierarchy.…”

ArticleOrganizational culture as the glue between people and organization: A competence-based view on learning and competence building Is organizational culture a catalyst of competence development? This paper argues it is. The reason for this is that organizational culture fosters the process of learning and competence building and works as a glue between people and the organization they belong to. We employ a most recently developed approach belonging to market process theory, the so-called 'competence-based theory of the firm', to explain these causal relationships.

This paper aims to provide a degree of clarity on the corporate communication management (CCM) concept, by building a conceptual framework that uncovers its underlying antecedents and consequences. Although it is consolidated that corporate communication and information together plays an important role in strategic management planning due to the high relevance of managing positive relationships with multiple stakeholder that have a strong impact on corporate survival, extant literature suggests that there have been few empirical studies so far assessing the contribution of CCM to organisational performance.Design/methodology/approach. The paper is conceptual and a model is developed as a result of an extensive critical multidisciplinary literature review. in order to provide a more systematic and coherent concept that is operational and measureable. Nevertheless, no one method has been defined as the most effective, and assessment methods remain unclear (Christensen and Cornelissen, 2011;van Riel, 1995).Although most corporate communication and information professionals could benefit from using an integrated and more organised framework, the academic field of corporate communication remained scattered, divergent, and lack coherence (Belasen, 2008;Christensen and Cornelissen, 2011). This confusion, regarding the central concept of corporate communication management, has still not been resolved (van Riel 1997) and the kno...

“…The authors base their explanations on institutional theory. Calori and Sarnin (1991)under taken elaborate field study with questionnaire survey on work-related values and management practices and economic performance data of five mature single business French firms pursuing differentiation strategies. Some cultural attributes and related management practices are positively correlated with organisational relative growth performance and some of these, and a few others are correlated with relative return on investment and relative return on sales.…”

Methodological Issues in Studying Cultural Dimensions with Special Reference to Educational Context

The aim of this review was to evaluate certain methodological issues related to the measurement of cultural dimensions and their effects with special reference to educational contexts. Using Google Scholar with the exact topics as search terms, 50 research reports were obtained. The results obtained from the critical analysis of the methodologies used in these reports are discussed in this review. Most studies were on power distance and individualism/collectivism dimensions of culture. A large number of conceptual frameworks and as many as 121 measurement instruments have been proposed by different workers. Research approach in any particular study is determined by the framework and the instrument chosen or self-developed instruments. Surveys and interviews are more commonly used. Not estimating internal consistency or reliability tests in some works makes it difficult to judge the validity of the method of data analysis. Generally the sample size is in the range of 200-500 participants in surveys. Small sample sizes used in a few works may affect the validity and applicability of their findings. It is concluded that large groups of scientists doing a common research programme across several countries is better than individual researches. Meta-analyses are also superior to individual researches. Such methods ensure validity and replicability of the findings. Although none of the research used scenario analysis, it is also a promising method.
