BZ Ness Ltd is an organisation with a strongly traditional outlook. It is structured and managed according to classical

principles: specialisation, the scalar chain of command, unity of command and direction. Personnel tend to focus on their

own distinct tasks, which are strictly defined and directed. Communication is vertical, rather than lateral. Discipline is much

prized and enshrined in the rule book of the company.From the scenario,

what sort of culture does BZ Ness Ltd have, using Harrison's classifications?

A

Role culture

B

Task culture

C

Existential culture

D

Power culture

Chapter6Organisationalcultureandcommittees

Rationale: The role culture is a bureaucratic or mechanistic culture, as described in the scenario.Task culture is project-

focused; existential culture is person-focused; and power culture is leader-focused.Pitfalls: If you didn't know Harrison's model well, you might have confused 'focus on the task' (see in the scenario) with a task culture, or the strong central

leadership with a 'power' culture
