Grundlagen und Relevanz der Unternehmenskultur im Rahmen der Organisationsentwicklung: Evaluation der Methoden zur Kulturtransformation
- The issue-area of organizational culture gained pertinence over the last few decades. Scientists found out that organizational culture has a significant impact on the success of organizations. Because of the fast-moving environment of companies, firms have to build up capabilities to react quickly to those environmental changes and adapt. Adapting means changing and as the culture of an organization is the fundamental base it has to change, too. Deduced from that development in science this paper investigates methods to change organizational culture and evaluates which of these methods are sensible to do so. The interventions Laboratory Training, Survey Feedback and Process Consultation are compared by assessing studies that tested the effect of those methods. The results of that comparison show that all three intervention types are useful to change organizational culture but for different cultural aspects and in different stages of the change process. Laboratory Training should be applied at the beginning of the change process in order to change attitude and strengthen the commitment to change. Survey Feedback should be used whilst developing the new culture to obtain feedback from employees and increase their involvement in the change process. Finally Process Consultation can support the implementation of the new culture in specific departments. Because these findings are mostly based on older studies, future research should focus on newer methods and explicit on methods to change culture.
