‘Organisational culture is the body of solutions to problems that has worked consistently for a group and that is therefore taught to new members as the correct way to perceive, think about, and feel in relation to those problems.’ With time, organisational culture tends to create invaluable definitions of assumptions, values and beliefs, norms and also, the perceptions of participants in the organisation. In other words, organisational culture with time provides guidance to all employed within the firm to how the firm should operate to achieve organisational effectiveness.
Strong versus Weak Culture
The strength of an organisational culture varies along with the different life stages the firm undergoes. Young companies that are still under the influence of founders and founding families appear to need a strong and clearly defined culture as a way of finding themselves. Their culture evolves into a source of identity and strength in overcoming the threats and resistance that environments and competitors pose.
