      About the book

      Culture in management is an important issue from both theoretical and practical points of view. Culture is a universal medium, in which people act and organisations are submerged. It is a basis for all processes, such as communication; and it also remains an open and ambiguous phenomenon. This book deals with different visions of culture in management, emphasising epistemological and methodological pluralism, and the need for the development of new, creative concepts of culture. The book presents reflections on the most significant cognitive problems of cultural currents, provides an analysis of well-known and popular functionalist concepts of culture in management and ends with a presentation of less popular perspectives.
