Abstract:

Organizational culture represents an important factor which characterize every type of enterprises. Understanding how internal culture origins and changes, helps in explaining how new rules and routines are adopted within the organization. Cultural enterprises are flourishing because of being an important resource in driving innovation and digitalization. Among all the cultural enterprises, a significant contribution on Italian economy is given by public museums. Public museums have been recently reformed, and this implied the arrival of new directors, selected with an international call. Ne

Abstract:

This thesis explores, from a cultural perspective, the organisational change process resulting from a string of take-overs within Blazehard, a tyre manufacturing company in Spain. It looks at the effects of these changes in the way people reconstruct the organisation and their role as its employees through the stories they share. The first part of the thesis elaborates on the uses of culture as a conceptual tool for observing organisations and, especially, on the need to account for the complementary processes of continuity and change in social experience. The thesis proposes historical recoll

Abstract:

Young people are arguably facing complex life situations in their transition into adulthood and navigating their life trajectories in a highly individualised way. For youth in post-compulsory education, their training years have been extended, their years of dependency have increased and they have greater individual choice compared to previous youth generations. This study develops an understanding of the process of individualisation applied to youth in late modernity and explores it in relation to the neo-liberal climate. It compares the life situation of this youth generation with youth in t

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to examine sources of potential cultural discontinuity between Chinese students and Canadian teachers at an International school in China. Cultural discontinuity is a school-based process whereby culturally-based learning preferences and practices of students are discontinued at school (Ogbu, 1995). Since curriculum and classroom practices at International Schools are rooted in mainstream Western cultural values and worldviews, this dominant ideology may result in the discontinuance of cultural, value-based learning behaviours by Chinese students.

This study investigates the prehistoric transition from egalitarian to ranked social structure at Kitselas Canyon, Skeena River, British Columbia.

For this reason, the change management field’s role is considered to be crucial for all organizations in all industries.

The turn of the millennium has heralded an explosion in the popularity of adventure sports often also referred to as alternative lifestyle sports or extreme sports. These are offering both new avenues and potential challenges to the traditional ways of conceptualising and practicing sport. This thesis analyses the development of adventure sports, in particular climbing and kayaking, as a subculture. It delivers a socio-economic history of climbing, analyses the role of the media in its development, its participation and its lived experience. Further it investigates the impact of globalisation,

In a time of globalization and multiculturalism, the discourses on migration and social issues have become increasingly focused on culture.

Abstract:

Over the last decades Britain´s ethnic minorities have successfully established themselves in a multicultural society. In particular, Indian – Hindu communities generally improved their social and economic situation. In this context, the third generation of British Indians is now growing up. In contrast to the previous generation of the Indian diaspora, these children grow up in an established ethnic community, which learned to retain its religion, traditions and culture in a foreign environment. At the same time, these children are part of the multicultural British society. Based on the acade

Abstract:

The acoustic adaptation hypothesis was reviewed. This predicts that the sounds used by birds singing in a dense habitat should be of lower frequency than those in a more open habitat, and that sounds should be spaced out more in time in denser habitats to avoid degradation by reverberations. These predictions were tested by recording chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs) songs in open scrub, coniferous plantations, and a natural Scots pine forest, but the results obtained gave little support to the predictions made.

<p> With operations involving global interindividual interactions and strategic organizational change, organizations face a human resource problem.

One explanation to this question may be found in the historical development of the English game. As well as being a game, football is a form of cultural
