Culture and Strategy
An organization’s culture can be defined as “the unwritten set of rules and informal policies that direct employer behavior.” This definition is an amalgamation of organizational behaviorists’ thinking with industrial psychologists’ position, and human resource development researchers. Denise Rousseau’s research on the psychological contract probably comes closest to this amalgamation. Think about your own organization’s culture.
Respond to the following for your organization (My organization is Donaldson Company Inc):
What are the cultural norms that govern the organization, and what types of behaviors does the culture promote?
What behaviors does the culture punish? Do the specific behaviors you describe help enable the business strategy?
Do the behaviors you describe block the strategy?
Write your initial response in approximately 300 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
For this question, I will need a seperate answer. It only needs to be about a paragraph.
How well do you think the strategy developed and deployed by your firm's leaders match or align with the firm's culture?
