Answer: Use of the cultural web for analysing the organizational culture of La Trobe University: The cultural web will be used for analysing the work environment of the University La Trobe. The cultural web is identified by six different elements that help in forming the paradigm. The six elements are the stories, ritual and routines, symbols, organizational structure, control system and power structures[1]. Among these, three elements are analysed and they are as follows: Organizational Structure: The structure of the La Trobe University involves a hierarchical form of the structure of the organization. The hierarchical form of the structure involves a vertical structure where the presence of the authority is obvious[2]. In the university, there are the teachers, the management, the head teachers and the principal. The line of authority is quite formal. Control Systems: The cost of operation is highly controlled but there is a need for the university to emphasize on the quality. This will help in the university to get more students and employees. Rituals and Routines: The employees of La Trobe University they expect that they would be given a more decent working environment where they are able to work freely. This would be able to increase the productivity of the employees. The employees they also demand for a better pay structure so that they are able to sustain a better life style. Source of the resistance to change within the organization: The communication among the different departments of the La Trobe University is very poor. The message for the change from the higher authority does not flow in all the departments and so there is a demand for change.
