This Week’s Topic

Organizational culture has become a “big thing” in the last few years. It is sometimes a primary used to attract employees, and a catch phrase by which companies create a public image to reinforce marketing strategies.  Although the term may seem self-evident, it’s surprising how many different ways people think about organizational culture, and how many different things are meant when someone says “our culture”.

At this weeks session we will discuss the nature of organizational culture: What is it, how is it formed, how does the internal reality relate to the stated culture, how does telecommuting and remote work culture relate to “main office” culture, what is its value, and what is the impact of stated and unstated organizational culture on the work experience itself and organizational results?

On the above indicated site of We Are The Network you’ll find suggested reading. I for my part hope we’ll also discuss in that context the critique on management culture mentioned in one of my previous posts.
