Organizational Culture Test
An organization’s culture greatly influences the way people behave within the organization. It also sets the context and tone for much of what the organization does.
Organizational culture can be defined as a set of shared beliefs and values that are established, communicated, and reinforced through company policy, communication, hierarchy, stated goals, and many other parameters. Organizational culture ultimately shapes employee perceptions, behaviors, and understanding.
