Abstract
It is one thing to understand and alter the structure of an organization and the technology it uses; it is quite another to understand and alter the culture of an organization and the relationships that characterize it. Iowa State University (ISU) Extension's Human Resources Unit assessed ISU Extension's existing culture and then compared that culture to the conditions necessary to create competence. According to the findings, if ISU Extension wants to create an organization that fully taps the competence of its staff, the administrative team must change its management culture from patriarchy to one of competence.
