MAPPING ORGANIZATION CULTURE WITH COMPLEX MULTI-LEVEL MODELS
Abstract
The current article reviews complex multi-level frameworks as a modern
and complicated technique of describing target organizational cultures. The essence,
reasons of development, advantages and disadvantages and comparisons of/among the
items in a set of ten frameworks, containing at least four organization culture levels, are
revealed here. A system of classifying these elaborated frameworks is proposed and
substantiated, too. The issues, concerning teaching of such models at economic
universities in the presence of different types of audiences, are discussed and some
appropriate solutions are also suggested.
