We find that there exists coupling relationship between the organizational culture and the mode of technological innovation, different organizational culture is applied to different innovation mode. Furthermore, from the dynamic point of view, in different periods there also exists the feature of synchrony evolving between the organizational culture and technological innovation mode under the strategic orientation. During this interactive circulating process, enterprises gain growth and competitive advantage.
