IKEA Business Group Observation Organizational Theory Discussion
First, watch the video IKEA Culture.
After watching the video, outline in 3-4 paragraphs your observations regarding the design, structure and culture of the organization. Why did the culture evolve? What influences affected the cultural change (demographics, etc.?) What changes would you expect to see as IKEA moves to a different location?
Remember, details are important. I expect for you to create some synergy and promote discussion on the topic. This information will become invaluable as we progress throughout the courseand especially for your final Case Study.
