Year: 2012

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: There are different ways of viewing organizational culture and organizational change in an arts organization. This paper discusses and compares two major theories of organizational cultures ( Schein, 2004 , Hofstede, 1991 ). The research problems are How to study organizational culture and organizational change at an arts university? How do the theories presented reconcile the characteristics of an artistic organization in an economic environment? It is crucial to find the way to the deeper levels of a culture, and to assess and challenge the functionality of the assumptions on which the daily cultural practices depend.
