Organizational Culture - The Innovation Parking Lot

This machinima helps show the frameworks of organizational culture that exist in the business environment including power distance, innovation and risk taking, and outcome orientation. Culture is presented through the use of artifacts as well as stories which are shared between employees. It is also important to notice how messages are presented and their different layers of meanings.

The question is not how to get managers’ emotional commitment but why manager’s don’t give it even if they like their company.

Most managers have plenty of emotional commitment to give to their jobs. If they can be convinced it’s safe and sensible to give it.
