The era of globalization and the knowledge-based economy have created new challenges for management. Innovation has to be developed faster and more effectively. The determinants supporting an innovative economy and innovative enterprises need to be analyzed. One of the leading determinant being organizational culture. The organizational culture impact on innovation is important, although it has not been examined in the macro context very well. The paper tries to fulfill the gap by presenting a comparison of pro-innovative indicators as well as the organizational culture of selected countries. One of the key areas of analysis in this paper is to identify the influence that cultural differences have on innovation. The aim of the study is to identify factors underlying the innovativeness of countries and regions, those well-developed and those less developed as well. The analysis will be performed taking into consideration characteristics which differ among European and Asian countries and the United States of America. The analyses will be performed on the basis of the indices and data collected in the Global Innovation Index. The work will also present an analysis of the influence of corporate culture on innovativeness. (original abstract)
