HRM and culture: History, ritual, and myth
将组织文化概念应用于人力资源管理实践,分析符号、仪式、意识形态等文化指标对HRM的影响,并提出通过文化敏感性改善组织变革管理的策略。
The concept of organizational culture is here applied to the practice of human resource management. Reasons for the current emphasis on culture as an organizational metaphor are suggested. Cultural indicators which have diagnostic value for human resource professionals include organizational usage of symbols, rituals, ideologies, language, stores, myths, relationships, and humor. Examples of these indicators of culture are drawn from a variety of HRM practices and functions to explore the implications of each indicator. Alternative strategies are presented for improving the management of organizational change through sensitivity to cultural impact and better utilization of existing cultural realities.
