 note = {Museums are organizations that, depending on their size, each have a unique
combination of workers. Typically included are employees whose duties are concerned
with visitors, the public raison d’être of a museum. Collections and exhibits
require academically trained specialists while the organization as a whole needs
administrators and managerial staff. In addition, there are possible for-profit activities,
such as museum shops and restaurants, in an otherwise mostly non-profit
environment. This situation may be further complicated by volunteer, temporary,
part-time, long-term or even tenured contracts for the people involved.
The unique and complex combination of workers of a museum is commonly
housed in a singular building, a space in which all people may interact or encounter
each other daily. As a result of the organic relationships among all staff members,
the organization is still a whole, i.e., a museum, and not a combination of unrelated
practices.
When employees of organizations are studied within management or organizational
psychology disciplines, this diversity among employees is often absent.
Non-profit organizations are already less often studied but especially part-time and
non-managerial workers are rarely included in surveys that seek to understand organizational
behavior (Bergman and Jean 2015).
The following study of people working at the National Museum of Ethnology,
or Minpaku, a Japanese institution with the largest ethnographic collections in
Japan, includes a wide array of employees. They were provided with a one-page
questionnaire on work ethic to confirm or contrast results from previous research
elsewhere. Where the findings contradict earlier studies, recommendations are made
for future research in which studies on museum organizations can play a pivotal role
to address the needs in fields of management and organizational psychology.},
