...First The role of organizational culture 1.1. The concept and components of organizational culture Specific patterns of thinking and behavior of members of the organization in the form perpetuate culture. The interest in organizational culture appeared in the science of management at least since the direction of the development of human relations, highlighting the importance of human interaction methods for the efficient functioning of the organization. The concept of organizational culture, however, is still a matter of debate and controversy. This is somewhat understandable given the one hand, the ambiguity of the concept of culture, on the other hand - the diversity of expectations about the possibility of explanation in terms of the cultural analysis of various organizational phenomena. What is culture? It is difficult to clearly define but generally we sense intuitively, what is meant by this term. Edward Hall, a famous scholar of culture, he writes about culture as a system of communication. Culture provides us with both the language "heard" that and "inaudible", gives us a common image of the world, ourselves, and our role in it. Culture teaches us how to move in the world, how to evaluate - what is right and what is wrong - and you can manage the rules of social intercourse. Culture is not a product of nature, but of human communities. We receive it as a gift from others - from those of us who have been participants. At the same time, however, it is a living thing...

...Role of Leadership and Management in Organizational Change There are many roles of leadership and management within organizational change; however it is required of a leader to acquire certain skills and knowledge. A leader with the right skills, knowledge and characteristics can persuade and influence change within an organization. They can influence other employees the change that is taking place within the company and give guidance through the change that is taking place. These skills that are required of a leader must be developed and learned over time. I will be analyzing two leadership strategies that have been used to successfully motivate organizational change during the past 10 years and I will be analyzing the effectiveness of each strategy and relate how effective management strategy alone may well be challenged to achieve desired change. One type of leadership is participative that is sometimes called Democratic leadership this type of leadership focus on the participation of other; I believe participative leadership is important because it involves everyone in the team. When the team is involved it demonstrations, the usefulness of others viewpoints while creating leadership opportunities; this allows others to be a part of the decision-making process. Participative leadership can be effective if there is time to allow other in the team to brainstorm and come up with ideas to help the decision-making process. Also, participative leadership can be effective if the...

...ROLES OF MANAGEMENT IN AN ORGANIZATION 1 The Most Important Concept in the Role of Management in an Organization T. Wright Holy Family University ROLES OF MANAGEMENT IN AN ORGANIZATION 2 Abstract In reading the three assigned articles/case study “Managing Your Boss”, “When a new manager stumbles, Who’s at fault?”, and “A Day in the Life of Alex Sander: Driving in the fast lane at Landon Care Products” and looking back on some of my own work experiences I have realized that there are many key concepts in the roles of management in an organization. But there are a few key concepts in particular that I believe are the most important in the role of management in an organization. In this paper you will read about things that stuck out to me from the three articles and some of my personal work experiences that relate to messages the authors are trying to portray in these articles which include actions that I notice managers, employees, bosses, and myself take where I work every day and my opinions on how things could be done differently for the good of the company. I hope you enjoy reading this paper and also learn something along the way as well.

...What is Pareto efficiency? Why do economists use this criterion for comparing alternative economic systems? An allocation of resources is Pareto efficient when there is no alternative that keeps all individuals at least as well off, but makes at least one person better off. One reason that economists use this criterion for comparing economic systems is that it is relatively uncontroverisial. Stronger criteria are likely to be met with more disagreement. What is a property right? What role do property rights play in a market economy? A property right is a socially-enforced right to select the uses of an economic good. A property right is private when it is assigned to a specific person. Property rights are alienable when they can be transferred (sold or given) to other individuals. Since owners bear the wealth effects of their actions, there are strong incentives to rearrange property rights in market transactions to increase efficiency and value. Many economists favor free trade between nations. They argue that free trade will increase total world output and make people of trading nations better off. Discuss how this argument relates to concepts presented in this chapter. Free trade allows countries to concentrate on producing goods and services for which they have a comparative advantage. This specialization increases the total production of goods in the global economy. Thus, each nation can be better off with free trade than if they individually tried to be...

...The Role of Leaders in Creating a Learning Organization Introduction The concept of learning organization is undeniably an emerging one necessitated by the ever changing environment in which organizations operate. This dynamism requires an organization with structural designs which are flexible enough to allow for an organization to draw lessons from experiences especially its own and actually apply these lessons. This particular paper describes the role of leadership in creating a learning organization. Role of Leadership in Organizational Learning Therefore, it is imperative that the organization’s culture and ultimately, its leadership style are accommodative enough to encourage and allow for a change in the mindset and behaviors of the employees and the organization by extension. Learning within an organization is a complex undertaking that involves various processes which go on indefinitely and requires ‘motion’ from all levels of management of the organization. Information must be created and shared amongst all employees within the organization their rank and seniority notwithstanding. Moreover, it has serious financial implications to the organization but this alleviated by the numerous benefits of learning within the organization. The organization will not only become competitive in the labor market but also in the product market because its labor force is highly productive, innovative and creative as a result of sharing information. Both motion of ideas and information...

...Role of Age in Technology Adoption Decisions in Organizations Aashish Jagini University of Missouri Technology has become a vital and integral part of every organization. From multi-national corporations who maintain mainframe systems and databases to small businesses that own a single computer, technology plays a role. Technology has become indispensable because it has made its way into all the areas of an organization. Adoption of technology in an organization may influence performance and growth through improvement in productivity, competitiveness, efficiency, and effectiveness. Technology helps an organization to re-engineer work practices, improve speed, maintain consistency and accuracy and increase reliability. In the past two decades, research has focused on the notion of technology adoption. Studies have examined various aspects of technology adoption at an individual and organizational level and in this paper will analyze if age can be a differentiating factor in adoption of technology in the workplace. Research examining age differences in technology adoption decisions A research study was conducted by Micheal G.Morris and Viswanath Venkatesh in the year 2000 to investigate age differences in individual adoption and sustained usage of technology in the workplace using the theory of planned behavior. The theory of planned behavior is a theory which links beliefs and behavior. The study was done over a period of 5 months among 118 workers. User reactions...

...Running head: The Nurse’s Role in Supporting Application 1 The Nurse’s Role in Supporting the Organization’s Strategic Agenda NURS 6022 Alisa Gafeney Walden University May 7, 2011 The Nurse’s Role in Supporting the Organization’s Strategic Agenda Nurses are on the front lines of patient care, as delivery of care relies heavily on the nurse to provide excellent patient outcomes. The purpose of this paper is to gain insight into the nurse’s role as a supporter of an organization’s strategic plan from the perspective of a quality manager. Summary of the Interview The interview was conducted with Jennifer Price, the director of an intermediate stroke unit within a 794-bed hospital. The unit’s population of patients consists of stroke, seizure, back surgery and other types of intermediate care patients. The unit employs nineteen RNs, nine nursing assistants and three supervisors. During the interview, the nurse’s role in supporting the organization’s strategic agenda was discussed at length, along with ways to improve the nurse’s role in support of the organization’s agenda. The first question asked was how important is the nurse’s role in clinical outcomes. Jennifer stated that the impact that a nurse has on clinical outcomes is “huge,” due to the fact that nurses are responsible for all patient outcomes. Care of the patient in...

The long history of language studying shows the interest of scientists to determine the issue of basic language functions, which inevitably include the nominative one. As a primary language function, the nominative function assumes the language system ability to designate and to isolate fragments of reality, transferring their notions into words, word combinations, idioms and sentences. The dynamic development of cognitive and communicative activities of human society and, as a result, the emergence of new realities, artifacts, objects of material and spiritual culture really determine one of the main tasks of language as "providing all spheres of life activity of a person with new designations" [3]. However, the role of the language in organizing and storing information in our mind is still unclear. A lot of disciplines are aimed at studying perception...

...Chapter 03 - Markets, Organizations, And The Role Of Knowledge CHAPTER 3 MARKETS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND THE ROLE OF KNOWLEDGE CHAPTER SUMMARY This chapter answers three primary questions: How do market systems work? What are the relative advantages of market systems compared to central planning in large economies? Why do we observe so much economic activity conducted within firms in market economies? In addition to covering the basic principles of exchange and supply-and-demand analysis, the chapter introduces two concepts that are critical to the subsequent development in the book: specific knowledge and contracting costs. The chapter also makes the important point that individuals have incentives to choose value-maximizing organizational arrangements. An appendix presents the basics of present value analysis and the valuation of common stock. It also discusses the concept of stock market efficiency. This appendix provides useful background material (for example, when instructors want to discuss the stock market reactions to events).
