Which effects the organisational culture has on the process organisation is yet unexplored, but however quite crucial. The purpose of this thesis has therefore been to study which parts of the organisational culture that are specifically important to study in connection to a process organisation.
In order to investigate this question, a pilot study based on nine interviews has been done at one of the schools of the National Rescue Services in Revinge in the south of Sweden. The interviews were semi structured and analysed in accordance with the IPA- method (Interpretative Phenomenological analyses). Together with the interviews the collected theory about organisational culture and process organisations was and a point of departure for investigating the purpose of the thesis.
Three important findings of which parts of the culture that are specifically important in order to reach a well functioning process organisation were made. Firstly both management and co-workers need to have a positive basic outlook of the abilities of the human being. Secondly there has to be a small psychological distance between people in the organisation and thirdly something between an individualistic and a collectivistic culture has to be established. (Less)
