Organizational Culture Analysis Project

Organizational culture is a system of shared values, norms, and assumptions that guides

members’ attitudes and behaviors and influences how they perceive and react to their

environment (Griffin et. al, 2017). Because culture is predicated upon perception, there will be

multiple views.

As you view organizations for employment or seek to learn more about your current

organization, it is important to evaluate the culture within an organization. The purpose of this

assignment is for you to analyze a company and to determine its organizational culture.

Directions:

1) Select an organization from The Best Employers for Diversity 2019:
