LESSON NOTES
============
Johnson and Scholes created the model called the Cultural Web of an organization. It helps us understand the factors that have an impact on an organization’s culture:
• Paradigm - the set of assumptions about the organization that everyone makes (or most people do)
• Symbols - terminology, branding, perks, titles
• Power Structures - hierarchical structure and networks of informal power
• Organizational structures - relationships between functions, activities, people, and even budgets in the organization
• Control Systems - how the organization measures and rewards performance - and what it rewards and punishes
• Rituals and routines - what we do and how we do it - including how people relate to one another
• Stories - the events and personalities the organization remembers and how it frames them into lessons, successes, failures, heroes and villains
We can use this model to help us to:
1. Assess the components of the culture as it is now
2. Determine how we want it to be
3. Identify the changes we need to make, in each area, to bridge the differences

I will honestly run out of words to thank you, I owe this video so much ….❤ I am a Master’s student and literally few days before my exam this was the only video I saw and understood quickly!!! 🎉 it was tremendously helpful and perfectly explained … I literally nailed the exam when I was asked this topic … All thanks to the channel for taking amazing efforts to make education accessible for everyone in a proper way … my special appreciation to the tutor in the video 😊 Hats off ….. have never seen someone explain this clear my entire education career …
That's great to hear. The speaker is me: I research, write, perform, edit, and post all these videos. So hearing how they help people like you is very important to me.
Fantastic explanation, straight to the point!
Thank you.
thank you! I hardly comment, but you really did explain it well!
Well, thank you!
Hi, first of all; Thank you for making this (and other) video's, they are great and I really like the way you present them. I have read a bit into the subject and what I found is that different websites/people use the 7factors in different order. I now wonder if there is a set -more sensible/efficient- order of 'working' on the model. What i mean is, is there a good/bad way to do it, or is it a matter of good/better? Cheerio!
I don't think there is a correct order. The way I approach these things is to look for an order that makes sense to me and allows me to explain as clearly as possible. Other writers/speakers may see the world differently (or simply arrive at a different order that makes sense). There are 7! (5,040) sequences of these 7 items. No one is going to try out all of them!
thanks for this. by far the easiest explanation i have seen
Glad it helped!
Very Clear!! Thankyou
You're welcome

Hello there! Is cultural web and organizational culture the same thing? If not, how are they different?
No - the cultural we is a set of factors that build up the culture. I explain in the video.
@@ManagementCourses Okay, thanks! I will watch the video again. I just get confused with these two.
