This book provides a tour of the elements of organizational culture. Understanding these elements, their interactions, and interdependencies is necessary to the work of consultants who want to work in this particular part of the feld of organization development (OD). These are the consultants who seek to participate with an organization in developing or changing an aspect of its culture. Especially if this will be happening in the context of supporting the resolution of some business problem or structural change effort. In general, the book examines how culture is created from the moment people begin to organize, to how culture tends to be regarded in the process of change management, to the processes at work in an organization as culture is being formed. Along the way, there are descriptions of how I have consulted to cultural issues and recommendations about consulting practices and techniques. What follows is a chapter by chapter overview of this tour so that you can anticipate where we are going.
