Summary/Abstract: It is possible to formulate some recommendations that can help managers efficiently bring about organizational culture in and technical vocational schools, paying particular attention to intangible, apparently not essential aspects of the organizational environment; to be skeptical of proposals calling for emergency of transplantation or transformation of existing cultures; to try to understand the significance of important organizational symbols (logo, slogan, prospects); to listen to stories that are prevalent in the organization, analyzing who are their heroes and the stories that reflect the culture of the organization; from time to time to introduce organizational rituals to transfer the basic ideals and strengthen the culture; to implement abstract ideals directly in daily activities. Consequently, organizational culture of each educational institution is caused by values, attitudes, beliefs of its members, as well as the peculiarities of life in specific areas and nature of production.
