Background. Organizational ambidexterity is listed among up-to-date concepts recommended for managers to cope with turbulence and multidimensionality of the business environment. The idea of combining both evolutionary and revolutionary organizational changes seems to be very attractive but challenging to implement.

The aim of the paper is to analyze the literature contribution to the development of the ambidextrous organization concept as well as to identify the key problems and trends in research output. The research process is oriented to responding to the following questions: (1) What are the key contributions of the literature in the field to the development of the concept? (2) What are the key research topics and trends in the field? Methodology. Systematic literature survey is the applied methodology. The Scopus database is used as a source for the sampling process. Key findings. The analysis points out the following main areas of research interest in the field: (1) ambidexterity and ambidextrous organization conceptualization, (2) organizational management context (including managers) where these assumptions are embedded and studied, (3) innovations, organizational learning processes and creativity, and (4) strategic management aspects.

The company conducts many socially responsible initiatives; however, it cannot realize its CSR programs without engagement of its employees. The company is medium-sized enterprise, that is why every CSR activity and program can be realized by many managers and workers.

In order to achieve the aim of the research, the following objectives have been set: (1) to present the main assumptions of the corporate social responsibility concept; (2) to describe company's stakeholders and to show the potential benefits they can achieve thanks to CSR strategy; (3) to measure and analyze employees' participation in CSR programs conducted in the company and to check their readiness to engage in socially responsible activities in the future. The main limitations of the research are focus on one company and small research sample. The findings and their presentation are achieved based on the questionnaire survey described in the paper.
