When we digress.

I lis­te­ned to this while wri­ting this post, try it while you read :o)

I’d like to go back to my lit­tle list of books. I men­tio­ned that I would intro­duce you to two other books. Having not yet kept my pro­mise, I’m doing it now. The second book I’ve del­ved into is Edgar Hen­ry Schein, Orga­ni­za­tio­nal Culture and Lea­der­ship. What a won­der­ful book. It deals with the concept that we call culture. Schein pre­sents, in his own way, the link he sees bet­ween the culture of a group and the role that lea­der­ship has in the crea­tion and evo­lu­tion of this culture.

This is very exci­ting. This book allo­wed me to modi­fy my defi­ni­tion of culture through the examples that Schein offe­red and by com­pa­ring them with my own expe­riences. Obvious­ly, it is mere­ly a brick in the construc­tion of my own know­ledge of the field, but Schein mana­ged to turn what may seem abs­tract to the majo­ri­ty of us into some­thing tan­gible, for those who go to the trouble of rea­ding it. 

Each chap­ter has a sum­ma­ry as well as a conclu­sion that could act as a pro­po­sal, although to list them, in the way that Thomp­son does, would have sim­pli­fied the consul­ta­tion of the work in the future. In a future post, I will tell you about the second book that I got hold of after rea­ding Haf­si and Demers’ book.
