Abstract
Organizational culture is the sum of all conscious and unconscious elements that are experienced as a rule or norm in companies. An overview of three conceptualizations of organization culture by Schein, Müller, and LaLoux illustrate different views and the relevance of culture in the context of digital transformation. The interdependence of culture and change management is explained in a description and explanation of the role of emotions and the corresponding culture-related “display rules.” Finally, concepts relevant to designing and changing organizational culture, including emotion, will be provided. The central insight is that emotions within and between teams or groups motivate people to perform certain activities that relate to specific situations in the group.
