leader – people are
hardly aware of its existence,
but it fills their beliefs, and
gets things done in a specific
way.

you share common experiences that shape the way you understand the world.

The same person, thus, can belong to several different cultures depending on
his or her birthplace; nationality; ethnicity; family status; gender; age;
language; education; physical condition; sexual orientation; religion; profession; place of work and its
corporate culture.
Culture is the "lens" through which people perceive the world. It is central to
what you see, how you make sense of what you see, and how you express
yourself.

things around here."

→
shared values,
beliefs,
habits, working language, systems, and symbols. It is interwoven with
processes,
technologies,
learning and

different individuals bring to the workplace their own uniqueness,
knowledge, and
ethnic culture. So corporate culture
encompasses moral, social, and behavioral norms of your organization based
on the
values, beliefs,

attitudes, and priorities of its members...
