Organizational culture, sometimes called corporate culture, is a system of shared beliefs and values that develops within an organization and guides the behavior of its members. Culture can vary considerably with different organizations having different emphases on risk-taking, treatment of employees, teamwork, rules and regulations, conflict and criticism, and rewards.
There are four main types of organizational cultures: clan, adhocracy, market, and hierarchy.
A clan culture has an internal focus and values flexibility rather than stability and control; it encourages collaboration among employees.
Adhocracy culture has an external focus and values flexibility; it also responds quickly to changes in the marketplace.
Market culture has a strong external focus and values stability and control; productivity and profits take precedence over employee development.
Hierarchy culture has an internal focus and values stability and control over flexibility; it has a formalized and structured work environment aimed at achieving effectiveness.
Give real examples of the four types of Organizational culture?
