Abstract

Culture is critical in organisations, particularly in research and development (R&D) activities. This study explores the facets and drivers that facilitated culture formation in an R&D setting. We focus on the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), which had been able to develop closely guarded space technology indigenously. Based on in-depth interviews with a unique set of respondents in the age range of 66–94 years, we present a holistic organisational cultural model by juxtaposing its facets and drivers. We further expound on how the constraints of the public-funded organisation are negotiated in building a conducive culture.

期刊介绍： IIMB Management Review (IMR) is a quarterly journal brought out by the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore. Addressed to management practitioners, researchers and academics, IMR aims to engage rigorously with practices, concepts and ideas in the field of management, with an emphasis on providing managerial insights, in a reader friendly format. To this end IMR invites manuscripts that provide novel managerial insights in any of the core business functions. The manuscript should be rigorous, that is, the findings should be supported by either empirical data or a well-justified theoretical model, and well written. While these two requirements are necessary for acceptance, they do not guarantee acceptance. The sole criterion for publication is contribution to the extant management literature.Although all manuscripts are welcome, our special emphasis is on papers that focus on emerging economies throughout the world. Such papers may either improve our understanding of markets in such economies through novel analyses or build models by taking into account the special characteristics of such economies to provide guidance to managers.
