Organisational Culture
Organisational
culture is considered to be one of the most important factors within the
organisation, which helps the organisation to enhance their performance.
Organisational culture could be identified as the collective effect of the
common beliefs, values, behaviors and norms within the organisation
(Armstrong, 2009). Similarly, culture also includes organisation’s vision,
values, norms, systems, language and habits states (Needle, 2010). Above all
definitions, organisation culture is simply the way things are done within the
organisation.
Organisational culture would enhance the morale and
the motivational level of the employees of the organisations. Further, when the
employees are motivated, they will always satisfy their customers by way of
offering them a better service (McKay, 2016). Additionally, a strong
organisational culture is critical to organisation success. According to
Whipple (2009), Organisation’s management is responsible for creating an
environment that inspires and encourages employees so that they could feel that
their personal motivational processes are supported and appreciated. In
addition, leaders could help create positive morale and motivation in their
team and in each individual, simply by creating a working culture of trust and
affection.
A better understanding
of organisational culture would turn the organisation into a team and decide
how employees would interact within the organisation.
Consequently, when the employee’s values
are corresponds with those of organisation; the employees would tend to react
positively to changes in the organisational culture. Cultural changes aggravate
emotional reactions thereby; the role the employee plays within the organisation.
If the emotions of the employees would be acknowledged and treated with
respect, then the employees would become more engaged with the organisational
change.
They have identified that there would be few of the elements of organisational
culture which would influence the emotional responses to the organisational
change of employees (Armstrong,
2009).
Conclusion
In
concluding the discussion, organisational culture could be identified as a
crucial factor within the organisation in order to earn a better competitive
advantage. It would help the management to enhance the employee’s motivation
and morale which in return, the employee performance would enhance to the top
levels.
