Fenomen grupizmu na gruncie organizacji funkcjonujących w Polsce
The Phenomenon of Groupism on the Basis of an Organization Operating in Poland

Summary/Abstract: The term groupism is derived from the Japanese cultural model of collectivism, and it describes the behaviour of group-oriented individuals. In this meaning, it refers to both the national and organizational culture, being the natural element of the latter. In the author’s understanding, groupism in organization means high degree of internalizing by employees of collectivistic features as well as ritual practices stemming from them. Those practices can also be implemented in companies with foreign Japanese capital, which originally functioned in an environment with different behavioural patterns. Can thus understood groupism be spotted among the Polish companies with foreign Japanese capital? Based on her own research, the author demonstrates that the answer to the above question is affirmative, however, under condition of fulfilling certain assumptions. Groupism may be displayed on the level of employees’ attitudes, since they reflect different types of adapting by Polish personnel of the phenomenon in question.
