Understanding and Shaping Organizational Culture.

Cherrey, Cynthia

Campus Activities Programming, v22 n9 p60-64 Apr 1990

Organizational culture is difficult to change, but the norms that exist are the easiest elements to identify and change. Even if changing the norms is not desirable, it is essential to understand and articulate them. A change in cultural norms is communicated through new expectations, different language, and new behaviors. (MSE)
