Organizational culture is defined as the shared beliefs, assumptions, values, and norms that shape how an organization functions. A strong organizational culture provides members with a sense of identity, stability, and guides appropriate behaviors. Culture is created by founders and leaders, and transmitted to new members through socialization processes like training and stories. While culture provides benefits, it can also hinder change and diversity if not managed properly.
The meaning and dimensions of culture-Lecture-03(Helen Deresky)Shifur Rahman

Building an ethical workplace culture requires equal skills in policy-making and relationship-building, and equal emphasis on procedures and values. Structural concerns like codes, training and clear criteria matter, but so do storytelling, mentoring and presiding over an organization’s routines and ceremonies. In an ideal workplace, structures and relationships will work together around core values that transcend self-interest. Core values will inspire value-creating efforts as employees feel inspired to do what is right, even when the right thing is hard to do. The ethics of our workplace cultures matter because the work itself matters and requires the cooperation that only positive, virtuous ethics can sustain. Compliance keeps us out of trouble, but virtuous ethics will create value for our co-workers and for our organization.

beliefs, assumptions, values, and norms that

3. WHAT MUST BE FOR CULTURE TO EXIST?
1. It must be shared by the vast majority of
members of a group or society;
2. It must be passed on from generation to
generation; and
3. It must shape behaviour and perceptions.
5. SHARED ASSUMPTIONS
Shared assumptions are the thoughts and
feelings that members of a culture take for
granted and believe to be true.
6. VALUES AND NORMS
Values are the basic beliefs people hold that
specify general preferences and behaviours,
and define what is right and wrong.
Cultural values are reflected in a society’s morals,
customs and established practices
Norms are rules that govern behaviours of
groups of people.
7. SYMBOLS
A symbols is any visible object, act, or event
that conveys meaning to others. Examples:
Artefacts
Dress
Office layout
Slogans
ceremonies
8. LANGUAGE
Language is a shared system of vocal sounds,
written signs, and/or gestures used to convey
meaning among members of a culture.

do
(feminine).
·High Score on MAS falls on the Masculinity side of this dimension.

assertiveness and material reward for success. Society at large is more
competitive.
·Femininity, stands for a preference for cooperation, modesty, caring for the
weak and quality of life. Society at large is more consensus-oriented.
13. UNCERTAINTY AVOIDANCE (UAI)
·How a country or society handles the fact that the future or situations can
be unpredictable or unclear: should we try to control the future or just let it
happen?
·The uncertainty avoidance dimension tells the degree in which citizens of a
society feel apprehensive or nervous with uncertainty and ambiguity and have
created beliefs and institutions to specifically protect against it.
·Countries that possess a strong UAI have strict codes of belief, laws, and
behavior and are unaccepting of different behavior and ideas. There is a strong
emotional need for rules.
·Weak UAI societies maintain a more relaxed attitude in which practice counts
more than principles.More “care-free”; accepts inherent ideas; not threatened by
change or different ideas.
14. LONG VS. SHORT TERM
ORIENTATION (LTO)

perspective, you value persistence, perseverance, saving and being able to
adapt.
Short-term orientation exists when you are focused on the present or past and

fulfillment.
