    Session 2227: Advancing our Understanding of Organizational Culture's Relationship to Strategy and Innovation

    Tuesday August 08, 04:00 PM - 05:30 PM, Orleans Room of the Marriott

    Organizational culture and strategy have long been studied independently. Recently, scholars have given more attention to the interdependent relationship between organizational culture and strategy. How can culture be a strategic resource in innovation and entrepreneurship? Can we leverage new methods to advance our theoretical understanding of culture? While scholars and practitioners acknowledge the importance of culture, efforts to define and strategically utilize culture often prove frustrating and dissatisfying. This symposium showcases research that can expand our understanding organizational culture's relationship to innovation and strategy.
