description The objective of this study is to analyze the possible relationship between the degree of flexibility or rigidity of the organizational culture and the use of competitive strategies in the industry of paper, cardboard and pulp in Mexico. Currently the volatile and competitive environment in which firms are inserted forces them to explore on the fundamentals that give sustenance to their organizational culture, and to study the competitive strategies that take to respond to the demands of the market, if they want to remain in them. To achieve this, a questionnaire based on Yeung, Ulrich, Nason and Von Glinow (2000) and Gomez (2008) was applied on a sample of 25 companies across the country, obtaining 420 observations. It was used to culture the focus of Cameron and Quinn (2006) and for the strategy the focus of Porter (1982). A Pearson correlation test was applied to test the hypothesis. We found that the dominant culture is the market and the dominant strategy is cost, and the construct rigid culture better associates to strategies, particularly with the differentiation and that there is evidence of the association between the two variables in the studied industry. The results found no doubt will be useful to managers in industry, and then assist them to rethink their strategies and seek to find an appropriate balance of cultural strengths. For the academic research sector found empirical results are important, because they strengthen the findings of the literature.

En la actualidad, el entorno volátil y competitivo en el que están insertas las empresas les obliga a explorar en los fundamentos que dan sustento a su cultura organizacional y a estudiar las estrategias competitivas que adoptarán para responder a las exigencias del mercado, si es que quieren permanecer en él. Para lograr lo anterior, se aplicó un cuestionario, basado en Yeung, Ulrich, Nason y Von Glinow (2000), y Gómez (2008), a una muestra de 25 empresas en todo el país, logrando obtener 420 observaciones. Se utilizó, para la cultura, el enfoque de Cameron y Quinn (2006) y, para la estrategia, el enfoque de Porter (1982). Se aplicó una prueba de correlación de Pearson para probar la hipótesis. Se encontró que la cultura dominante es la de mercado y la estrategia dominante es la de costos, el constructo “cultura rígida” se asocia de mejor manera con las estrategias, particularmente con la de diferenciación, y que sí existe evidencia de la asociación entre las dos variables en la industria estudiada. Los resultados encontrados, sin duda, serán de utilidad para los directivos del sector industrial, pues les auxiliará a replantear sus estrategias y a buscar cómo encontrar un adecuado equilibrio de fortalezas culturales. Para el sector de investigación académico los resultados empíricos encontrados son importantes, pues fortalecen los hallazgos de la literatura existente.text/htmlengUniversidad EAFIThttp://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co/index.php/administer/article/view/2367http://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co/index.php/administer/article/view/2367Copyright © 2014 Francisco Villarreal, José Gerardo Ignacio Gomez Romero, María Deyanira Villarreal SolísAcceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2instname:Universidad EAFITreponame:Repositorio Institucional Universidad EAFITAD-minister: No 25 (2014)Organizational culture and the Competitive Strategies in the cellulose, paper and cardboard industry in MexicoLa Cultura Organizacional y las Estrategias Competitivas en la industria de celulosa, cartón y papel en Méxicoarticleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlepublishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículohttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1Organizational culturerigid cultureflexible culturecompetitive strategiescompetitivenessCultura organizacionalculturas rígidasculturas flexiblesestrategias competitivascompetitividad.Francisco VillarrealJosé Gerardo Ignacio Gomez RomeroMaría Deyanira Villarreal SolísUniversidad Juárez del Estado de DurangoAD-minister2597120THUMBNAILminiatura-administer.jpgminiatura-administer.jpgimage/jpeg8755https://repository.eafit.edu.co/bitstreams/0730d5e6-8890-4de5-a0ec-9a447bc01ef1/download87c28d32b620f3408b1c70a3c505fbd8MD51ORIGINALLa Cultura Organizacional y las Estrategias Competitivas en la industria de celulosa, cartón y papel en México.pdfLa Cultura Organizacional y las Estrategias Competitivas en la industria de celulosa, cartón y papel en México.pdfTexto completo PDFapplication/pdf684817https://repository.eafit.edu.co/bitstreams/c50610d2-20c3-4cdf-bca0-6f5fffdd5c89/downloada7dc7283a019af20b5711f049f87791fMD52articulo.htmlarticulo.htmlTexto completo HTMLtext/html374https://repository.eafit.edu.co/bitstreams/d6cc2e5a-af93-49f5-a502-77d1f699c231/download1bad5590115d1e2dca58063bb3a2a3b0MD5310784/13949oai:repository.eafit.edu.co:10784/139492019-12-04 09:49:10.099open.accesshttps://repository.eafit.edu.coRepositorio Institucional Universidad EAFITrepositorio@eafit.edu.co
