DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/2175-8077.2012v14n33p119Since the Greek philosophers have been studying human behavior and its principles. In modernity, with the advent of organizations, the concern to control and predict this behavior surpassed the importance of ethics and morality, instituting increasingly regulatory codes of conduct, and functional rationality as a basis. However, it is unclear whether the managers of these organizations share thoughts and organizational discourse converges with the staff. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the convergence of organizational discourse and the perception of senior executives in industries that won the Award of Excellence Santa Catarina from 2006 to 2010. We analyzed the institutional statements and interviews with executives and found that the instrumental rationality of modernity and concepts are crucial, and the perception of managers and content of organizational documents and converged with a high degree of consistency.
