METHODOLOGICAL PROPOSAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THEORETICAL FOUNDATION ON CULTURE, CLIMATE AND ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR

This research aimed to deepen studies on the tripod culture, climate and organizational behavior for the development of the theoretical foundation of a doctoral thesis. The strategy used was the bibliographical research, which aimed to identify the main scientific works of the world related to the themes in reference. The starting point was the structuring of a keyword tree, defining the central theme and the thematic axes to start the searches. The construction of the tree was based on the definition of the Boolean expressions used in the three search engines: Scopus, ISI Web of Knowledge and Science Direct, all linked to the periodicals of the Coordination of Improvement of Higher Education Personnel. At the end of the research process, we select and catalog the documents found by creating a portfolio. In order to carefully analyze the results of the bibliographic research, four steps were structured to filter the findings, thus choosing the best and most significant articles. The applied strategy allowed the survey of the literature for the development of the theoretical foundation.
