CONCLUSION
Culture is the
environment that surrounds you at work all of the time. It is a powerful
element that shapes your work enjoyment, your work relationships, and your work
processes. However, culture is not something that you can see, except through
its physical manifestations in your workplace.
In many ways, culture is like personality. In a person, the personality is made up of the values, beliefs, underlying assumptions, interests, experiences, upbringing, and habits that create a person’s behavior.
Culture is made
up of such traits shared by a group of people. Culture is the behavior that
results when a group arrives at a set of generally unspoken and unwritten rules
for working together.
An organization’s culture is made up of all of the life experiences each employee brings to the organization. Culture is especially influenced by the organization’s founder, executives, and other managerial staff because of their roles in decision making and strategic direction. Still, every employee has an impact on the culture that is developed at work.

ReplyDeleteYour culture may be a mirrored image (or a betrayal) of your company’s core values. The ways during which you conduct business, manage workflow, interact as a team, and treat your customers all add up to an experience that ought to represent who you're as a company and the way you suspect an organization should be run. In short, your culture is that the sum of your company’s beliefs in action.
ReplyDeleteBut if your espoused values don’t match your culture, that’s a controversy. It could mean that your “core values” are an inventory of meaningless buzzwords, and your people understand it.
A strong organizational culture keeps your company’s core values front and center all told aspects of its day-to-day operations and organizational structure. the worth of doing so is incalculable.
