ORGANIZATION ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE AS CULTURAL PHENOMENON

The political scientist Robert Presthus has suggested that we live in a "society of organizations." In Japan, Germany, Hong Kong, England, USA, Russia and Canada and other industrialized countries, large organizations are likely to influence an alienating way if we lived in a remote tribe in the jungles of South America. This is completely obvious, but many of the characteristics of culture rest on obvious things. For example, how many people organize their lives based on different concepts of work and leisure? Follow rigid routines 5 or 6 days a week, living in one place and work in another, dressed uniformly, defend the authority and time consuming in the same place doing a repetitive set of activities. For a foreigner daily life is a peculiar set of beliefs and ritual routine that identify it as a completely different culture when compared with other more traditional societies. Anthropologists and sociologists have carefully studied these differences. For example, in societies where the household is the basic economic unit of production (rather than an organization), we find that the work has a different meaning and usually take much less time than one person. The distinctions are drawn between "meaning" and "end", between "occupational and general economic activity" and "social organization", tend to be more vague and attitudes and belief systems more cohesive. The French sociologist Emile Durkheim has shown that the development of the traditional models of social order, ideals, beliefs and values \u200b\u200band give more fragmented models of beliefs and practices based on the occupational structure of the new society. The division of labor characteristic of industrial societies, it creates problems of integration or, more accurately described as a problem described as a problem of "culture management. "They had to find ways to find and join society again, governments, religion, media and other institutions on the formation of opinions and beliefs play an important role in this process.
