Professor, way time back I asked you this same question but I am confused a little.
Handy's culture to organisation structure.
Task culture is matrix organisation.
Power culture is entrepreneurial organisation.
Role culture is functional organisation.
Person culture is kind of divisional organisation.
Have I said these correct?
Ask the Tutor ACCA BT
Handy's Culture and Organisation structure
Structure and culture do not correlate perfectly.
Task culture implies flexibility so that people get the job done. This might be seen in a matrix structure but could also exist in a functional organisation where, for example, people in production are multi-skilled and step in as needed.
Similarly, although a power culture is almost inevitable in an entrepreneurial organisation (small, one boss) it can also exist in a functional structure where there is little delegation of decision-making power.
Alright professor. Understood!
