2. Organizational Culture...
“...is both a dynamic phenomenon that
surrounds us at all times, being constantly
enacted and created by our interactions
with others and shaped by leadership
behavior, and a set of structures, routines,
rules, and norms that guide and constrain
behavior”.
3. Organizational Culture is...
…the way we do things around here
…a pattern of shared basic assumptions how
to behave, lead, solve problems and succeed
…seen as kind of the nature of our business
…both a mental model and a set of
emotionally rooted activities
