Which view of organizational culture makes more sense to you: Deal and Kennedy’s four cultures or Schein’s three-level model? In your essay, make sure to explain either: (1) Deal and Kennedy’s four cultures and give an example for each or (2) Schein’s three levels and give an example for each. Your response should also provide a clear and compelling reason for why you think one theory is superior to the other.
What will be an ideal response?
Responses that focus on Deal and Kennedy should explain and give an example for each of the four types of organizational culture (work hard–play hard; tough guy macho; process; bet-the-company) and give an example. Responses that focus on Schein’s model should discuss and give an example for: level 1 artifacts; level 2 values; and level 3 assumptions. The essay should make a clear argument for why one theory is superior to the other.
