Organizational culture is an important issue because of its` big influence on enterprises’
productivity and consequently on realization of their objectives and goals. The
validation and harmonization of organizational values and employees’ values has an
important role in increasing operational efficiency. It has long been established that enterprises
and organizations, where creative and interested employees who support and
understand the organizational values of the company work, operate more effectively.
In this article elements of organizational culture are studied with a particular focus
on the meaning of organizational culture values. This article also reveals an
evaluation of the organizational culture in public sectors in Latvia (based on publicly
available data and sources of information). In the research there is an indepth
analysis of official public organizational culture values included. The analysis
has been done in the context of rating different leaders’ organizational values.
In this article we analyze the conclusions of various writers on the subject of organizational
culture framework characterization. The research of values guidance as well as a view of
cultural meaning and influence on both individual and organizational development is
described here. The authors analyze the results of empirical research about official public
values of companies and the results of a public leaders’ survey (as well as the personal
values of employees) which provide an opportunity to compare organizational employees’
values with the common results of organizations. Conclusions shows public characterization
of values and values distribution in potentially limitative and positive values.
The in-depth research of organizational values is based on A. Maslow’s (Maslow 2000)
hierarchy of needs approach and developed on R. Barrett`s (Barrett 2006) sample of seven
levels of consciousness.
