Abstract
The case provides an overview of Hungarian telecommunications company MATAV's organisational transformation following its privatisation in 1993. It concentrates in particular on the development and implementation of a cultural change programme spearheaded by MATAV strategic advisor (and former Ameritech executive) Peggy Bartel. Since MATAV's senior management is comprised not only of Hungarians, but Americans and Germans from each of the venture's foreign partners (Ameritech and Deutsche Telekom), the case highlights the complexity of integrating diverse corporate and national cultures. This case was sponsored by the Indiana University CIBER Case Collection.
