BOHORQUEZ PULIDO, Pedro A    CENDALES RODRIGUEZ, Juan P. SMEs AND ENVIRONMENTAL PUBLIC POLICY IN COLOMBIA: REDIRECTION BASED ON ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE. []. , 16, 2, pp.228-247. ISSN 0124-8693.  https://doi.org/10.22267/rtend.151602.29.

This document aims to evaluate the foundations of environmental public policy, to determine the factors that could promote the redirection inside SMEs, according to their organizational culture. The authors made a literature review about organizational culture proposals, characteristics, definitions, and its role in strategic organizational direction; then we evaluated the environmental public policy in Colombia in contrast to multinational organizations recommendations (such as OECD), and finally we identified problems related to the causes and applicability of policies. As a conclusion, environmental public in policy in Colombia lacks a proper incentive system to promote environmental friendly behaviors; in that sense, organizational culture in SMEs, which follows financial goals, is ignored.
