Johnson & Scholes' Cultural Web
By describing the distinctive rituals, stories, symbols, power and organisational structures and control systems that can contribute to the organizations worldview on e can more clearly characterize an oragnisation's culture
From Wikipedia
Johnson (1988) described a cultural web, identifying a number of elements that can be used to describe or influence Organizational Culture:
The Paradigm: What the organization is about; what it does; its mission; its values. Control Systems: The processes in place to monitor what is going on. Role cultures would have vast rulebooks. There would be more reliance on individualism in a power culture. Organizational Structures: Reporting lines, hierarchies, and the way that work flows through the business. Power Structures: Who makes the decisions, how widely spread is power, and on what is power based? Symbols: These include organizational logos and designs, but also extend to symbols of power such as parking spaces and executive washrooms. Rituals and Routines: Management meetings, board reports and so on may become more habitual than necessary. Stories and Myths: build up about people and events, and convey a message about what is valued within the organization. These elements may overlap. Power structures may depend on control systems, which may exploit the very rituals that generate stories.
