- Organizational culture in police corporations : a design guided by institutional valuesPublication . Fernandes, Sérgio Henrique Soares; Freitas, Mónica; IUMInstitutional values are an essential part of organizational culture, especially in police organizations, given their specific characteristics, such as conservatism, traditionalism, isolation, etc. Given this context, the general objective of this article was to outline the international culture of the Police based on each of the institutional values of the corporations investigated. The organizational values of the Police were demarcated as the object of study, being limited to the "street police", that is, those that exercise the ostensible character of preserving public order. The research had an exploratory character, of a qualitative nature, based on bibliographic and documentary analysis. An inductive reasoning was followed with an analysis of the values of 12 selected corporations in 11 countries. The challenge was to answer the central question - which current institutional values are representative of the culture in police organizations around the world? The main results showed that the organizational culture is made up of core institutional values such as commitment, loyalty, honor, respect, discipline, spirit of sacrifice and courage, as well as adjacent values such as professionalism, respect for human rights, quality, transparency, humanity, impartiality and justice.
