Executive Insights: Corporate Culture and Market Orientation: Comparing Indian and Japanese Firms.

The authors examine how organizational dimensions, including corporate culture and market orientation, affect performance in major Indian firms. The research uses a framework (the universal high performance model) developed in the United States and first tested in Japan to assess Indian organizational business-to-business relationships. Although there are some intuitively obvious substantive differences between Indian and Japanese companies, the general pattern of how various factors drive business performance is similar in both countries despite the different economic environments in India and Japan.
