The Role of Organization culture in Total Quality management system of se

Date : Jan 2013 - Present

Research shows that organizational culture is “the difference that makes the difference”—it is the reason why 70 percent of all mergers and reorganizations fail. The powerful cultural factor is really not as “vague” as prejudice would have it. Culture is usually experienced as obvious: people are not aware of their workplace culture. That’s why a description of culture is not easy, while changing culture is even harder. The OCAI provides a starting point to both: becoming aware of current culture and finding what could be changed to evolve toward a preferred culture. The typology of four archetypes of culture is easy to understand and remember - it provides a handy, shared reference that helps people see their culture. It is a first step. OCAI offers you some grip to actually start changing; what direction are we taking? With the OCAI Work Kit that OCAI Online offers with paid accounts, you also have a step-by-step manual to fully utilize this approach.
