Question

What are 4 types of organizational culture?

Answer 1

According to Robert E. Quinn and Kim S. Cameron at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, there are four types of organizational culture: Clan, Adhocracy, Market, and Hierarchy.

1. Clan oriented cultures are family-like, with a focus on mentoring, nurturing, and “doing things together.”
2. Adhocracy oriented cultures are dynamic and entrepreneurial, with a focus on risk-taking, innovation, and “doing things first.”
3. Market oriented cultures are results oriented, with a focus on competition, achievement, and “getting the job done.”
4. Hierarchy oriented cultures are structured and controlled, with a focus on efficiency, stability and “doing things right.”
