A questionnaire was used as the research method.250 people participated in the survey. All the participants work in the banking sector and the questionnaire was shared with bank employees in Turkey. According to the results, understanding of the organizational culture of people working in the banking sector is different from the concept of culture which was foreseen in previous studies in Turkey. The innovative focus of the sector was determined as the main reason for this difference. It was observed that the concept of strengthened employees has a positive effect on innovation performance.
