Abstract: 
This qualitative research examines how organizational culture intersects with team management in the construction industry. Conducting interviews with nine experienced construction project managers and team members, we collected data using a qualitative approach. We applied content analysis to scrutinize the gathered data, addressing the central question: 'Which strategies and techniques within organizational culture are essential for efficiently managing construction teams?' Our primary objectives were to clarify the intricate relationship between organizational culture and team management and outline key strategies crucial for effective team management. Consequently, the research revealed seven fundamental factors pivotal in facilitating effective team management, each accompanied by corresponding techniques. These factors encompass team formation and composition strategy, effective communication with the project team, employee development, team members' support, empowerment and autonomy, cultivation of a collaborative culture of trust and respect, and recognition and rewards policy. This study offers crucial insights into the correlation between organizational culture and successful construction team management, identifying vital strategies and techniques to enhance productivity, cohesion, and efficiency within construction teams
