Organizational culture exemplified by the Hungarian water inspectorates

The paper proposes an analysis of the Hungarian Water Inspectorate's organizational culture from micro and macro perspectives, based on a survey within Hofstede's research framework. The paper begins with a description of the Hofstede model, previous Hungarian studies based on it, and the existing micro and macro cultural studies; next it presents the organization in a historical perspective. The major aims of our analysis within the above mentioned theoretical framework are twofold: (1) description of a possible cultural typology on regional level for the studied organization; (2) identification of the relevant subcultures within the organization.
