Which of the following statements is true?

A

Strong values improve corporate performance

B

Strong values can replace rules and controls in an organisation

C

Strong values minimise conflict within an organisation

D

Strong values are dangerous if they filter out 'uncomfortable' environmental information

Chapter6Organisationalcultureandcommittees

Rationale: This is a problem with strong cultures (and ultra-cohesive groups).Pitfalls: The other statements are plausible: you need to come up with counter-arguments to show that they are not always true. B is most plausible because it makes a

limited claim that values 'can' replace rules: think of health and safety or financial controls, however, to disprove the claim.

Ways in: You could rule out two of the statements because they are dogmatic (so that just one counter-example would

make them untrue).
