Organisational culture and information management systems in public organisation - a study in Malaysian government organisations
Zakaria Abdul Hadi1.
The concept of organisational culture also referred to as corporate culture influences all kinds
of management strategies (Baron and Walter, 1994). In managing information systems attitudes
toward the value of various types of information, information system and communication technology are likely to vary across culture; culture differences need to be understood before such systems can be migrated between cultures (Leidner et. al, 1995). Within the government organisation, the scope of information management is considered to be an internal activities which include how information is collected, stored, analysed and utilised. Thus the transformation of IT in these organisations is impacted by the nature of culture inherited by the organisations. This paper will discuss the influence of organisational culture in deploying information management system within the Malaysian public organisations based on the case study conducted.
