Though highly complex and changing, strong workplace cultures act and respond in predictable ways. Great workplace cultures create incredible advantages-they attract talent, mobilise innovation, develop strong leaders, and become the organisation's muscle memory for ongoing success.
Culture of a workplace is the heart and soul of an organisation.It is the social operating system that influences what is valued, how people work, and how the organisation interacts with its customers and extended community. An organisational culture is alive, continually influencing and being influenced by the shared values and behaviours of its people. No culture is static. It morphs, improves, or suffers from inside and outside forces. Though they are highly complex and changing, strong workplace cultures act and respond in predictable ways. Great workplace cultures create incredible advantages-they attract talent, mobilise innovation, develop strong leaders, and become the organisation's muscle memory for ongoing success.
The 2018 Global Culture Report by O.C. Tanner Institute is a yearlong study of over 14,000 employees and leaders through quantitative findings. These are derived from online survey interviews administered to employees across Argentina, Australia, Canada, China, Germany, India, Japan, Mexico, Singapore, South Africa, United Kingdom, and the United States about the current and future state of workplace culture. The focus is on identifying key insights and highlighting simple actions organisations can take to create meaningful employee experiences that dramatically improve workplace culture. By doing so, organisations can connect people to purpose, accomplishment, and one another.
