This bibliometric review examines the literature published from 1983 to 2020 on how cultural factors influence organizational performance in multinational corporations, synthesizing research trends and patterns across the selected body of work. The paper’s key contribution is mapping publication output and scholarly themes over time to characterize how this topic has developed in the management research domain. A major limitation is that the method is bibliometric—prior work is summarized and categorized rather than experimentally tested, so causal inferences about organizational performance are not directly established. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

Cultural factors play an important role that affects the organizational performance of, especially, the multinational corporations operating across countries and cultures. This study aims to investigate the scientific information related to this research area. The metadata from 856 scientific documents published from 1983 to 2020 in 195 journals indexed on the Web of Science has been analyzed. This study provides deeper insights on: (i) productivity and performance in the contents of the research area; (ii) the most influential countries and regions, journals, authors, and citations contributing to this research area; (iii) most frequent keywords and their direction for future research.
