Organizational Culture

For this final SLP, choose an organization that you currently work for or have worked for in the past. You will be applying the concepts of organizational culture that you read about in the background materials to this organization.

Write a 2- to 3-page paper addressing the following issues:

1. Describe how your organization rates on these cultural characteristics: detail-oriented, team-oriented, innovative, aggressive, outcome-oriented, and people-oriented.
2. Discuss how strong the organizational culture is at your organization. To what extent is the organization’s culture shared by employees and managers?
3. What aspects of your organization’s culture do you think should be changed, and what steps would you recommend to change the culture?

SLP Assignment Expectations

• Answer the assignment questions directly. Stay focused on the precise assignment questions; don’t go off on tangents or devote a lot of space to general background materials.
• Make use of both the required Case Assignment articles as well as the required general background materials in your paper. Apply concepts that you learned in the background materials in your answers to the assignment questions.
