Organizational Culture and Leadership

Education & Reference Psychology & Self-Help Business & Economics

Organizational Culture and Leadership by Edgar H. Schein and Peter A. Schein distills decades of MIT research into a practical 2017 Wiley paperback that shows managers how to diagnose, shape, and sustain vibrant corporate cultures. This updated fourth edition keeps the authors’ classic models intact while weaving in fresh case studies from global tech, healthcare, and nonprofit sectors.

The textbook’s 416 pages explore artifacts, espoused values, and tacit assumptions—the three levels of culture—then link them to real-world outcomes like safety, innovation, and mergers. Consultants, HR leaders, and MBA students alike rely on its exercises, checklists, and cultural change roadmaps to turn abstract “soft stuff” into measurable results.

This used copy remains clean and tightly bound with no writing or highlighting; light cover scuffs and a minor spine split testify to previous desk duty but leave every word readable. Corner creases on four pages and two tiny tears do not affect text, and the book comes from a smoke-free home, ready for quick dispatch.

An affordable way to own the foundational text on organizational culture and leadership without paying full retail, this sturdy paperback will serve coursework, team workshops, or personal reference shelves for years to come.
