Abstrakt
The Covid-19 pandemic has complicated business activities at various levels, primarily in terms of work organization. The objective of this research is to determine the significance of organizational culture for employees working in home office conditions. What values and amenities, previously preferred in a company, are missing for employees in remote working conditions at home (RQ1)? Which values of organizational culture were predominant during remote work, playing an important role in home office conditions (RQ2)? Which were lacking (RQ3)? To analyze the above issues, this article used both secondary studies of national reports examining remote work, and the author’s pilot study using an online questionnaire. The research results indicated that remote work during the Covid-19 pandemic, in most cases, did not neglect the key values of organizational culture and the involvement of employees. The biggest problem turned out to be cultivating the values primarily responsible for building trust, honesty, and respect, as well as communication and motivation.
