From the Paper:
"Robin's idea of organizational culture involved his merrymen to follow his vision of vengeance for the sheriff and his vision did not have a clear strategic plan for conquering the sheriff. He believed that strength lay in numbers so that quantity, not quality had a dramatic effect on his mission. He did not know if his men had the same vision he did. He was uncertain of his progress with the campaign, the disposition of his forces, recent moves, and options that confronted him. He did not comprehend how the impact of his decisions would affect his band. Decisions made or actions taken that run counter to the internal culture of an organization, may, depending upon their magnitude, seriously decrease value over time (Pohlman, 2000)."
