The following article claims that’s there’s no such thing as corporate culture: Why Corporate Culture is a Myth.
I’d love to hear what you think, because I was more convinced than ever that it’s real as described by the following attributes listed in the article:
- Creation story (like in the Bible)
- Creed (as in “this is the Cubs’ year”)
- Rituals (banging drums in the sweat lodge)
- Icons (dazzling the senses, from coffee to doughnuts)
- Sacred words (”grande decaf latte, please”)
- Pagans (those who refuse to drink the Kool-Aid)
- Fearless Leader (from Buddha to Welch)
Seems like a good descriptor of the elements of a corporate culture, and could make for some interesting comparisons between cultures.
But read the article and tell me what YOU think…
