Organization as a Culture
From Collins and Porras’s Built to Last (1994)
4 common characteristics of cults that visionary companies display:
- Fervently held ideology (core ideology)
- Indoctrination: process of becoming a member.
- Tightness of Fit: in a visionary company, people tend to fit well or not at all.
- Elitism: part of something special, superior organization.
