LTStraipsnyje apžvelgta organizacinės kultūros pokyčių svarba organizacijos vystymuisi. Pokyčiai organizacijose vyksta nuolat, jie yra būtini. Tačiau visada atsiranda prieštaraujančių organizacijos pertvarkymui, nes darbuotojai jaučiasi nesaugūs: reikia rizikuoti, o tai prieštarauja jų nusistatymui; jaučia, kad po permainų gali būti nereikalingi; nebus pajėgūs dirbti naujomis sąlygomis; negali ir nenori mokytis bei kita. Straipsnyje aptariamos problemos, kurios iškyla keičiant organizacinę kultūrą, aptariami būdai, kaip kuo mažesnėmis sąnaudomis ją keisti. [Iš leidinio]
