Study Regarding Opinions of Manages from within the Banking System Regarding Organizations’ Methods of Adapting to Change and the Perception of the Stability of the Economic Environment

The purpose of the present article is to analyze the concept of change in banking organizational cultures from the point of view of employees in positions of leadership and the relationship that exists between change and the environment in which banking institutions carry out their activities in Romania Starting off from the theoretical research and practices with regards to changes that occur in organizations, our intention has been to offer an overview image of the way in which change is accepted and the way in which banking organizations adapt to change. In this sense 150 subjects were questioned and a database was set up which was accessible electronically. Afterwards a processing specific to the respective questionnaires was conducted, as well as a graphic representation of the recorded data. The conclusions of the study that has analyzed the given responses confirm that an organization is able to easily adapt to change and, in so far as the stability of the activity environment is concerned, perceptions differ. Manages from banking organizations with a primarily local, Dutch and Greek capital consider, with an overwhelming majority of 80%, that the environment in which they carry out their activities is stable, while only 35% of bank managers with a primarily French and Italian capitol share this perception.
