It should be no surprise that organizational culture can have an
impact on employee performance and satisfaction. Tell us about
the organizational culture at your current or past employer.
What type of impact did it have on your performance and
satisfaction? In addition to the textbook, utilize at least two
outside sources to support your response.
Info below is from textbook with citing info at the end:
a Definition of organizational culture Organizational culture
refers to a system of shared meaning held by members that
distinguishes the organization from other organizations.1 Seven
primary characteristics seem to capture the essence of an
organization’s culture:
1. Innovation and risk taking. The degree to which employees
are encouraged to be innovative and take risks.
2. Attention to detail. The degree to which employees are
expected to exhibit precision, analysis, and attention to detail.
3. Outcome orientation. The degree to which management
focuses on results or outcomes rather than on the techniques and
processes used to achieve them.
4. People orientation. The degree to which management
decisions take into consideration the effect of outcomes on
people within the organization.
5. Team orientation. The degree to which work activities are
organized around teams rather than individuals.
6. Aggressiveness. The degree to which people are aggressive
and competitive rather than easygoing.
7. Stability. The degree to which organizational activities
emphasize maintaining the status quo in contrast to growth.
Each of these characteristics exists on a continuum from low to
high. Appraising an organization on the strength of each
provides a basis for the shared understanding members have
about the organization, how things are done in it, and the way
they are supposed to behave.
Robbins, Stephen P.; Judge, Timothy A.. Organizational
Behavior (Page 527). Pearson Education. Kindle Edition.
