Changes in Organizational Attitudes and Culture
Attitude/Culture: individual and collective mental and emotional landscape upon which decisions about the organization and its process are navigated. It concerns the foundational behavioral patterns of the organization, as well as the assumptions, beliefs, values and personal aspirations that animate and guide those engaged in the activities of the organization. Attitude (individual) and culture (collective) can’t be directed identified nor measured. They can only be inferred from indirect observations and measures.
