Abstract: | This article looks critically at the results of one nonprofit volunteer center in its identification of organizational values and associated workplace behaviors. Using Martin's cultural framework (2002) inclusive of integration, differentiation, and fragmentation perspectives revealed a richer understanding of how staff, board members, and in‐service service volunteers variously interpret the meanings of workplace values. In particular, views that might otherwise have been ignored or remained silent were more clearly understood. |
