Organizational culture is generally understood as all a company’s beliefs, values and attitudes and how these influence the behavior of its employees.

Culture affects how people experience an organization-that is, What it’s like for a customer to buy from a company or a supplier to work with it. It Shows up in company policies such as dress code and office hours. It also informs things such as work place design and employee perks. Culture is usually set by a company’s leaders.

Companies don’t tend to define their cultures explicitly, they tend to emerge from what people believe, how they think, what they say and what they do. Culture shapes what behavior is acceptable or unacceptable. Culture may help define values and core principles that guide organizational behavior.    

Typically. Companies with a strong culture tend to produce superior results as compared to those with weaker cultures. When a culture is strong, it leads to motivated employees and high performing managers. Over the past few decades, both academics and practitioners have spent time focusing on the issue of corporate culture and whether a company’s culture does in fact impact its overall performance and effectiveness.

Strong culture leads to ongoing involvement and participation by a company’s employees and can predict current and future financial performance. A recent study shows that culture can be integral part of the ongoing change process (All companies are in a constant state of change due to competitive market and other pressure) and that certain cultural traits may be utilized as predictors of an organization’s performance and effectiveness.
