A quantitative, descriptive, transversal, non-experimental design approach is employed. A nine-item questionnaire was applied to 55 managers, attached to each vice presidency of the companies Carbones del Guasare, S.A, Cerrejón and Winter carbon mine. The results showed highly significant differences being moderately optimum, highlighting the organizational strategy, followed by the features and current trend, with flaws in the functional model. The study shows that the mining sector in Venezuela, Colombia and Chile gives especial attention to the organizational strategy, determined by the indicator socialization of labor activities.
