The article is aimed at exploring the issue of determining the level of organizational culture using the survey method. First of all, the relevance of this issue was considered and substantiated. This made possible defining the importance of further research and confirming the need for such information. In addition, previous studies were described, providing the necessary basis for the subject of the research. Then, the various methods of assessing organizational culture, which were proposed at different times in the past according to the then-needs, were reviewed and described in detail. This information would be unequivocally of great value for future researches, due to illustration of the sequence of actions that the past researchers went by at one or another time. The presented methods fit for different budget and size of enterprise, though they are not free from certain shortcomings, which are carefully described by the authors. At the same time, an existing questionnaire to identify the level of organizational culture was presented as suitable for low-cost and fairly fast use, the shortcomings of this method were formulated and closely described as well. The authors then proposed an improved questionnaire that included economically and socially improved questions, together with a rebuilt system for counting results. It is concluded that the carried out work is of high practical importance, because in an unstable and competitive environment, it is imperative to control and maintain an orderly level of organizational culture. With regard to further research on the issue, it was suggested that a more detailed survey system for different sectors of the economy would allow the methodology to gain popularity and gain practical value in a more broader sense.
