Abstract: Operating globally is one of the most complicated activities for international organizations due to the complexity of the working and market environment. The regular function of an international corporation prerequisites the harmonic coexistence of different cultures. The term “culture” in the organizational context of multinational enterprises (MNEs) has drawn the attention during the last few decades. Organizational culture comprises an important asset for the businesses’ success because it affects every organizational aspect. This thesis aims to analyze the role that organizational culture plays in multinational companies (MNCs) operation and more specific at the field of International human resource management, at the organizational context. It studies terms such as organizational climate, organizational structure and organizational change, and estimates organizational culture’s contribution to business performance. This thesis’ objective is to shed light on and weigh the gravity of an organizational culture and the fashion in which it affects business by giving certain paradigms. It administers crucial issues with different approaches and supplies with the refinement of those insights by setting new standards in business operation.
