Description
Summary:Corporate culture represents a personality of a company. Suitable corporate culture should be a summary of behavior and action of the company as a whole and its individual employees on their way to achieving the strategic goals of the company. Using the Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument methodology, the corporate culture on a sample of 1,114 respondents in wood-processing and forest enterprises in Slovakia is defined and compared. The hypothesis that there were statistically significant differences between wood-processing and forest enterprises in individual components of corporate culture is confirmed in the paper. The differences in the perception of corporate culture in the area of organizational leadership and criteria of success can be considered the research output. In the area of organizational leadership, there are significant differences in the respondents’ opinions. In the area of criteria of success, employees of the wood-processing enterprises preferred the success of these companies based on the development of human resources and teamwork. There were no significant differences in the area of overall corporate culture. Both groups of employees preferred clan corporate culture.
