Abstract

The importance of intangible elements is essential to the success of an organization. They often make the difference between success and failure. In this context, we find it useful to tackle this topic in our paper, namely the organizational culture in state operated healthcare facilities. Based on a questionnaire, we aim to identify the dominant norms and values in a healthcare facility so as to obtain an x-ray of the organization that would be a starting point for the managerial staff in order to improve the organizational climate. Tangible/material goods are exclusive, limited. Intangible assets, such as the meaning of the work, its purpose, moral dignity, the feeling of belonging are unlimited. All these are things we can obtain and use in our interest and in the interest of others only in the communities in which we live and work. A revolution in the meaning of work is called for, and a first step is the existence of a strong organizational culture characterized by purpose, principles, and autonomy.
