Determinations of irregular behavior result in annotation of the examinees' USMLE transcripts. As a result, recipients of these transcripts, such as residency program directors and state licensing authorities, are made aware of these determinations. For some infractions, examinees are also barred from USMLE for a period of time. As emphasized in the posting, a determination of irregular behavior can put your medical career in jeopardy." (ECFMG Website, "Irregular Behavior on the Internet," 2004) Thus, although conflicts with two sides of mutal validity are negotiated, conflicts between employees and students regarding the ethical nature of credentials for doctors are not.
Technology
Technology is the lifeblood of this organization. The office intranet connects us with one another. The Internet connects us to medical students across the world. Our faxes, telephones, modems, broadband connects keep us in constant touch with governments across the world. Technology enables us to inform medical students about test dates, procedures, and credential services on an up-to-date, even daily basis. Most of our organization's forms are available on our Website in downloadable for international user's ease and convenience.
As we are interacting with so many different cultures on a daily basis, technology remains critically important as a way of ensuring the continued globalization of the organization's outlook. The organization ensures that it has the latest software and programs packages to make the organization...
ECFMG, by nature of the organization's online design, ensures that its employees communicate frequently by e-mail. E-mail allows us to be constantly in touch with one another, and kept abreast of organizational changes in policy, but also with events across the world. E-mail is one solid, observable way to keep employees 'in the know' and connected to one another professionally and personally in a business sense and gives us a way to discuss world policies and how they relate to the organization.
Intranet communication also facilitates in-house electronic communication. Even when employees cannot meet face-to-face, they can still discuss changes in corporate or international policy relating to foreign medical graduates. In addition, complementing the fast pace of the organization, the organization has introduced instant communication the organization has intro-department instant messaging service through Novell Software. Communication is thus always very effective, particularly since this technical communication is also complemented by weekly-face-to-face meetings. Like in life, nothing is guaranteed. At times, wires do cross and that's where weekly meeting and minutes from the meeting aids in healing any failed connections.

Schein, professor of management at the Sloan School of Management, MIT, believes that organizational culture has in the recent past embraced themes from a number of disciplines, including sociology, social psychology, anthropology and cognitive psychology as well. And although all of these fields of study feed into today's concept of organizational culture, Schein asserts that organizational culture "has become a field
Employees handle a large amount of private documentation and must uphold the law of confidentiality legally and ethically. Despite the stress on confidentiality of client information, communication flow is still important to the organization's ability to get work done. / Thus confidentiality in the service of customers, not in the service of secrecy is the organizational mantra. Additionally, communication is not simply fostered in the organizational culture's common professional dress.
" (Simon, 188) the fundamental perspective here is that leadership and the ability to apply actions based on culturally driven decisions are central to helping members of the organization learn in a concrete manner how best to accord with the reigning culture.
