Organizational cultures can be defined as shared values, norms, and practices that influence how people and groups interact and perform their work. There are several key features of organizational culture, including shared values and beliefs among members, common norms and meanings, and rituals and ceremonies. Leadership plays a central role in developing and shaping organizational culture to align with strategic goals. However, organizational culture can also have limitations if the leader imposes their views without input or if symbols are misrepresented. Ultimately, understanding how culture influences people within an organization is important for effective leadership.
