Özellikle 1970’ li yıllardan bu yana, hem akademisyenler hem de
uygulamacılar arasında yönetim ve örgüt açısından kültürün ne anlama geldiği,
üzerinde çokça tartışılan konulardan biri durumuna gelmiştir. Bu çalışmada
örgüt, kültürel bakış açısıyla ele alınarak, antropolojideki kültür kuramının
kökenleri ile örgüt kuramı arasındaki etkileşim ve ortaya çıkan araştırma
alanları özetlenmeye çalışılmaktadır. Kültür kuramının sınırlarını ve gücünü
ortaya koyan bu tematik çerçeve, örgüt ve kültür kuramlarının kesişim
noktalarını ve beraberinde farklı kuramlara dayalı farklı araştırma stratejilerini
sunmaktadır. Çalışmada, örgüt kültürü çalışmalarında yöntem tartışması
üzerinde durularak, farklı yönetim ve örgüt kuramlarının benimsedikleri farklı
araştırma stratejileri ele alınmaktadır.
