Organizational Behaviour

by Kaylee Astle on March 20, 2010

1Organizational culture is a concept that affects all business environments, whether employees recognize it or not.  As a topic that has been covered in class, organization culture is something that has sparked my interest.

As the recession ends, people are still in unsteady jobs, and statistics have shown that people who don’t follow corporate culture are more likely to lose their job. This makes me wonder, if I ever own a business, how can I make sure there is a strong culture within the company?

Many present day companies provide as excellent examples to superior corporate culture.

The computer manufacturer, Hewlett-Packard (HP), is recognized for its impressive company culture.

Their corporate culture, known as “The HP Way”, is based on three main objectives

  • Respect everyone
  • Provide a sense of community
  • Work hard

Through extensive training of employees and managers, the company is able to maintain these high standards of corporate culture.

The exceptional culture Hewlett-Packard demonstrates is something all companies should strive for, in order to maximize employee satisfaction and corporate reputation.
