In addition to traditional quantitative methods of questionnaires and surveys, non-traditional methods are also being utilized to expand this body of knowledge such as the Zaltman Metaphor Elicitation Technique, or ZMET. This method gathers qualitative data to produce aggregate cognitive construct maps reflecting the most important constructs and construct relationships that participants hold in view of their respective organization. This study used the ZMET to analyze male and female organizational members of a large, Midwestern campus ministry. The resulting construct maps indicate that members of this organization share an overall strong organizational culture, however, subcultures within the organization emerged within the male and female participant groups, specifically in regards to perceptions of opportunities available, relationships to leaders, connectedness and the types of friendships that are cultivated. 2005-12-09 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1133987371 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1133987371 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
