Emmanuel Ogbonna, who is a Lecturer in Human Resource Management at Cardiff Business School, offers a critique of the burgeoning literature on managing organisational culture. He asks whether, after ten years of ‘sanctimonious devotion’, we are any closer to understanding culture; whether we are yet in a position to generate a conceptual model of managing organisational culture; or whether we have simply succeeded in e xposing the inherent weaknesses of such a notion.
