Organizational Culture at Nippon-Mitsubishi Oil
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing the need for a
paradigm shift away from employment for life toward a model more in keeping with today's

organizational culture model, both must ensure that organizational culture does not suffer in

allow it to gracefully extricate itself from some of its traditional kiretsu relationships that have
been detrimental in finance. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
