The Competing Values Framework (CVF)

A framework for categorizing organizational culture. this framework is based on two continuum's of organizational effectiveness. One axis pertains to whether an organization focuses its attention and efforts on internal dynamics and employee or outward toward its external environment and its customers. the second axis shows an organization's preference for flexibility or control and stability. these axes create four types of organizational culture that are based on different core values and criteria for assessing organizational effectiveness.

2. Values

4. Sense-making device

helps employees understand why the organization does what it does and how it intends to accomplish its long-term goals...ex.) Southwest Airlines views their competition as not only being other airlines but also ground transportation such as Greyhound buses. Employees come to understand why the vision is to be the best primary short-haul, low-fare, point to point carrier in the US. They know they must achieve exceptional performance, such as turning a plane in 20 minutes, because they must keep the costs down in order to compete with greyhound

1. Anticipatory socialization

The information comes from many sources, but a powerful source are the organization's current employees. Also, the internet and social media.
