Understanding Organizational Culture: An Analysis of Johnson and Scholes' Culture Web, Study notes of Culture & Society

Johnson and scholes' culture web is a framework that identifies six interrelated elements of organizational culture. By examining each element, one can gain insights into the functioning, strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement of an organization's culture. The elements include stories, rituals and routines, symbols, organizational structures, power structures, and controls.

What you will learn

  • Where does power and influence lie within our organization, and how does it shape our culture?
  • What stories are communicated in our organization and how do they shape our culture?
  • What is the nature of our organizational structure, and how does it impact our culture?
  • What are the key rituals and routines that define our organizational culture?
  • How do symbols, such as logos, dress codes, and jargon, reflect and influence our organizational culture?
