Latest posts by Mariam Peyton (see all)

    The management of any organization has the responsibility of setting out the goals and objectives. It also watches out for how employees are supposed to behave in various situations. As such, it outlines the overall organizational culture. For culture to be effectively maintained in an organization, managers and leaders must act as followers and also leaders. Commitment and enthusiasm towards a person or an organization differentiate effective and ineffective followers as well as leaders. A healthy organizational culture is based on mutual understanding and cooperation between the employees and the management. For a healthy organizational culture to be maintained, leaders and managers learn the role decision-making and the law of cash plays in an organization. This assignment looks at how Organization Culture is maintained in a business. Specifically, the assignment will answer questions like; what is organizational culture and why is important? How is organizational culture created and maintained?
    Organizational culture is defined as the company's beliefs, values, and attitudes, and how these factors affect the behavior of employees and customers. It can also be defined to mean the mutual existence of values, philosophies, and norms shared within an organization. The organizational culture of an organization is one of the ways by which it can sustain itself. The company’s structure may be systematic but once its workforce does not adhere to certain cultural traits then it’s bound to fail in the future.
    Organizational culture in a business develops during its establishment. Organizational culture is very important in an organization because it helps in the promotion of unity, and stimulates innovation amongst the employees so as to improve the economic output of the business. Organizational culture is a strong force in a company that impacts the behavior of the employees, hence impacting the productivity of the company.

    1.0 INTRODUCTION


    Organizational culture is one way through which an organization safeguards itself from external forces that affect the business environment. Organizational culture is defined as the company's beliefs, values, and attitudes, and how these factors affect the behavior of employees and customers, it can also be defined to mean the basic assumptions and beliefs shared within an organization. This assignment looks at how Organization Culture is maintained in a business. Specifically, the assignment will answer questions like; what is organizational culture and why is important, and the various ways through which it is maintained?

    Organizational culture in a business is maintained by organizing and managing individuals and teamwork within an organization to achieve organizational goals and objectives. The organizational structure supports and promotes efficiency, inspires better production, and provides clarity for each employee at every level.

    Organizational structure is maintained through an attraction-selection-attrition process where employees are attracted to organizations they will coordinate with. 
    Attraction-Selection-Attrition: this theory clearly holds that: 
    ⦁    Organizations are most likely to attract members that are similar to them regarding personality, values, and interests among so many others 
    ⦁    Individuals who possess similar skills, knowledge, and abilities as the existing members of the organization are most likely to be selected by the management
    ⦁    With time, individuals who do not fit in well within the organization are most likely to leave. 
    According to the above factors, the personal traits of the employees who work for an organization are most likely to become similar over time thus maintaining organizational culture.
