Changing of an organization's culture requires dramatically
different ways of thinking and doing-merely changing organizational
objectives won't cut it. The real "how" of culture change includes
attending to the role of human values, beliefs, identities,
attitudes, perceptions, practices, communications, physical
environment and quality of personal and group interactions.
Managing cultural change is not easy. Yet, we all know that
an organization's culture is fundamental to its ability to provide
consistently high-quality products and services. It is a vital
