PART 1P1 Evaluation of organisational culture, policies and power that influences individual and teambehaviourOrganisational culture is defined as values, assumptions, beliefs and ways of interactingthat makes each organisation's culture different and unique(Dartey,Baah and Amoako,2011).Culture of an organisation is developed slowly over a period of time. The employees, work andcustomers guide the organization culture. Study of typology of culture type helps to betterunderstanding of culture. Cultural innovation and maintenance also important. Culture in anorganisation helps to adopt changing environment and also to resolve problems that occurs ondaily basis. Charles Handy's Organisational Culture Charles handy born in 1932 and he is a well-known philosopher who has specialised inorganisational culture. According to Handy organisation culture is of four different types and aorganisation can follow any one of them. These four cultures are power, task, person and roleculture. To clearly define a suitable culture for TESCO details of all these cultures are asfollows-Power culture: Organisation's that follow culture to provide power in few hands and thatpersons are authorised to take decisions for organisation. Concentration of power in few1
hands will leads to provide privilege to certain person at workplace. They becomeimportant people at workplace who take major decisions. Individuals that posses powerdelegate responsibilities to employees of organisation. Employees have to strictly followinstructions of their superior persons. Organisation culture do not provide liberty toemployees to express their opinion to superior's and have to follow instructions providedto them. This type of organisational culture is partial to employees and concentrate morepower on few hands. Task culture: Organisation's that form a team to achieve a goal and to solve criticalproblems follow task culture system(Farndale,Hope,Hailey and Kelliher, 2011). In thisculture individuals that posses same interest and specialisation in a particular field cometogether to form a team. Team to complete a particular task involves five or six members.Every team member contribute best of there knowledge and helps to complete a task inmost efficient way. This type of organisational culture provide more productive results toa particular task. Person culture: Organisations have environment where people feel that they are moreimportant then the organisation. In a person culture, people are self focused and treatorganisation as a second priority. Growth of organisation is at back seat in this cultureand in long run organisation suffers. Employees come to workplace for sake of moneyand they do not find any attachment for organisation. They are not loyal towardsorganisation and always takes decision that provides benefit to them not to organisationas a whole. Role culture: Role culture is a culture where every person in an organisation is providedwith power and responsibilities, qualification and experience to bring best of theirknowledge(Francis, O’Connor,and Curran,2012). Every employee of organisationperform best and ready to take new challenges. More responsibility and power helps totake quick and effective decision making. Power comes with responsibility and everyoneis responsible for their work. TESCO'S to influence individual and team behaviour should follow Role culture. As roleculture provides power and responsibility to each and every one in the organisation. Thisprovides each individual a fair chance to prove themselves and use their specialised skills forbenefit of organisation. Distribution of power will give everyone right to express their opinion2
