Abstract

Sub-cultures within the organization or the enterprise (a chain of organizations) rarely receive sufficient attention considering the role they play in sustaining or changing the dominant culture of an organization. This paper specifically considers the role of sub-cultures as it addresses one step of a project to create, validate and use experimentally an indicator that captures the level of organizational learning for multiple levels of the organizational culture without the members of the organization repeatedly completing the instrument. This is done through revisiting two case studies and comparing the results of the previous analysis of these cases to the rating scale created for the new instrument.
