Culture has been defined as a pattern of shared basic assumptions that the group learned as it solved its problems of external adaptation and internal integration that has worked well enough to be considered valid and, therefore, to be taught to new members as the correct way to perceive, think, and feel in relation to those problems (Schein, 1992). The set of important assumptions (often unstated) that members of a community share in common (Sathe, 1985). The sum total of all the shared, taken-for-granted assumptions that a group has learned throughout its history. It is the residue of success (Schein, 1999). Culture has been characterized by many authors as “something to do with the people and unique quality and style of organization” (Kilman et al., 1985), “the way we do things around here” (Deal and Kennedy, 1982), or the “expressive non-rational qualities of an organization”. Organizational culture or corporate culture comprises the attitudes, experiences, beliefs and values of an organization. It has been defined as "the specific collection of values and norms that are shared by people and groups in an organization and that control the way they interact with each other and with stakeholders outside the organization.

(1980) showed how the study of these myths and symbols aid in revealing the “deep structure” of an organization. More recent researchers include Denison and Mishra (1995), Schein (1985a, b), Siehl and Martin (1988, 1990) and Wallach (1983), who have introduced various definitions of the culture concept. This plethora of research definitions is due to the different research framework adopted by the various authors. Smircich (1983) identified four scientific lenses through which the body of culture research can be viewed. This includes the view of culture first as an external variable, led by proponents like Ouchi (1981) and Pascale and Anthony (1981). Culture can also be viewed as an internal variable of an organization, which is the most common definition used by researchers like Collins and Porras (1994) and...
