| 177.2 | Where to find out about DEC's culture | NY1MM::SWEENEY | Pat Sweeney | Tue Aug 26 1986 23:23 | 21 |
| DEC's culture has been written about extensively.
By looking at the Readers Guide to Periodical Literature and the
Business Periodicals index you can get the articles that were published
in Business Week, Forbes, Fortune, etc. Expect anything written
from August 1983 to December 1984 to be highly critical.
By looking at the New York Times and Wall Street Journal you can
get a list of articles on DEC. Ken Olsen was profiled on the front
page of the Wall Street Journal about a month ago.
As for books (all written around 1982) DEC is described in Corporate
Culture, In Search of Excellence, and The 100 Best Companies to
Work for in America.
An excellent analysis of "what went wrong" was published in Marketing
Warefare, a 1985 book. A 1986 book titled Innovation mentions about
200 innovative companies without mention of DEC.
DEC's external image has been chronicled in much detail in the current
and previous volumes of HUMAN::MARKETING.

| There is also an article titled "The Astonishing Growth of DEC"
which was published in the 03-May-1982 issue of Fortune, which I
still have a copy of and would be willing to send to you if you
want it.

| 177.4 | DEC Culture Paper | GENRAL::TAVARES | Stay low and keep moving... | Wed Aug 27 1986 11:18 | 4 |
| What you may have seen was a paper created by Reesa Abrams (sp?)
and an associate on DEC Culture. This was the result of a study
they did at various DEC facilities. You may find Reesa through
ELF (I think she still on the West Coast).

| 177.5 | Internal Studies | LSTARK::THOMPSON | Noter of the LoST ARK | Wed Aug 27 1986 11:24 | 8 |
| Reesa Abrams (under contract to DEC) has done several culture
studies for DIGITAL INTERNAL USE. A back issue of EXCELENCE
gives Gayle Kenyon at INFORM::KENYON as a contact to get copies.
I beleive that one on Japan, one on IBM, and two on DEC were done.
They are very good. I've got them here somewhere. :-)
