Discussion:
You will be asked to analyze an organizational culture. This could be the organization you work with, or it could be some other organization to which you have access. Remember that clubs, associations, and churches can be considered organizations.
Research (data gathering) should include (but does not need to be limited to) mainly primary sources.
1. Primary data is the data collected by the researcher themselves, i.e.
interview
observation
action research
case studies
life histories
questionnaires
ethnographic research
2. Secondary sources are data that already exists
Previous research
Official statistics
Mass media products
Diaries
Letters
Government reports
Web information
Historical data and information
Collect your data and analyze it. Describe how you collected the data (observation, interviews, surveys).
Then, analyze the organizational culture along three dimensions: artifacts, values, and underlying assumptions. Give examples of behavior, speech, or symbols that illustrate your findings.
