Management Subcultures: Research and Change Available to Purchase

The purpose of this paper is to suggest the existence and nature of management culture. In particular, attention needs to be given to management subcultures. The norms, beliefs and values of these subcultures have consequences for management behaviour, individuals, for the organisation as a whole, and for the ways in which managers become socialised. A simulation approach to researching management subcultures and management behaviour is proposed. The use of the simulation approach for changing management behaviour and subcultures is discussed.
