Abstract

Organizational culture is the profound force that gives power to an organization. Managers influence organizational performance by optimizing processes, improving coordination between departments and between employees, by choosing appropriate strategies. Organizational culture identifies in purpose as a structural component of society, hence the role of the social action instruments and implicit the role of the state. The present article tries to identify the reserves of these entities in growing the market performance of companies in Romania.
