Abstract

Periodic surveys of Indian business culture gathered from the perceptions of significant actors are essential in this changing environment. This paper gathers the perceptions of potential employees, namely, MBA students of two premium institutes of Bangalore. Indian business organizations—rated and ranked on variables of business culture—are seen as low on risk tolerance, using guarded communication styles, avoiding conflict confrontation and having politicised environments with slow decision-making. Changes required to move towards an ideal productive business culture are suggested.
