| 总结: | This study investigated the influence of organizational culture and strategy on attitudes
toward organizational change in Malaysia. This research also examined the association
between ethnic culture and organizational culture. Organizational culture was measured
by using the Organizational Culture Model developed by Goffee and Jones (1998), while
organizational strategy was measured by using Miles and Snow's (1978) strategic
typology, and the attitudes toward change were measured by using the Dunham et.al.
(1989) instrument. A total of 258 companies listed in the Federation of Malaysian
Manufacturing (FMM) directory participated in the study. Chi-square tests, Pearson
correlation, and cross tabulation were used to measure the association between the
variables and to determine the extent of influence of the independent variables on the
dependent factors. It was found that there is a strong association between organizational
culture and organizational strategy. The cross tabulation results revealed that certain
types of strategy prefer the adoption of certain types of organizational culture. It was also found that there is an association between organizational culture and attitudes
toward organizational change. Cross tabulation results also revealed that the different
types of organizational culture have different levels of acceptance of attitudes toward
organizational change. With regards to the relationship between organizational strategy
and attitudes toward organizational change, it was found that there is an association
between them. The cross tabulation results also showed that the different types of
organizational strategy have different levels of acceptance of attitudes toward
organizational change. Finally, ethnic culture was found to have no association with
organizational culture. |
