Structural and psychodynamic perspectives Culture can also be interpreted as the expression of unconscious psychological and psychodynamic processes (Yiannis, 1999). This perspective adopts a Freudian approach to the interpretation of organisational culture as a relationship between latent unconscious and manifest conscious levels. From this perspective: Organisational forms and practices are understood as projections of unconscious processes and are analysed with reference to the dynamic interplay between out-ofawareness processes and their conscious manifestation.

From the outset, therefore, any analysis of a health organisational culture faces the following difficulty. How can the overall culture be described or assessed when it is composed of an amalgam of different subcultural strands, each of which is likely to vary from one location to another?
