Culture Documents
Organizational Culture is the set of values, norms, guiding beliefs, understandings, and ways of thinking that is shared by members of an organization and that is taught to new members. It represents the unwritten, feeling part of the organization (Richard L. Daft 2004). The basic pattern of shared assumptions, values, and beliefs considered to be the correct way of thinking about and acting on problems and opportunities facing the organization (McShane & Von Glinow).
Internal Integration to integrate members so they develop a collective identity and know how to work together effectively External Adaptation to help the organization meet goals and deals with outsiders by responding rapidly to customer needs
To assess the organizational cultures at IT services based organizations and IT product based organizations and identify the differences in the cultures of the two types of IT organizations (if there are any).
Methodology
A Questionnaire consisting of two parts:
o First part captures details and demographics of the respondents. o Second part consists of 24 questions answered using a five-point Likert scale. Responses from strongly disagree through strongly agree categories, were scored from 1 to 5 respectively.
The survey was hosted on the web and forwarded through emails to the respondents.
Methodology (Cont.)
The respondents were segregated as per the type of organization they work i.e. Service Vs Product. The questions were grouped into 4 categories, based on the type of the culture they access/evaluate. The Mean and Standard deviations were computed for each of the respondent for each of the four types of organization cultures. Mean and Standard deviations were computed for IT Services and Product based organizations as a whole for the four types of cultures based on the values calculated in the above step.
