Effect Of Culture On Organizational Working: An Empirical Study On The Health Care Sector

Culture is the set of beliefs, attribute and values which the organization employees perceive. It is a set of values not visible but shared by the members of the organization. Every organization bears a culture essential for its growth and identity in the society. A conducive culture effects the working of the employees and hence the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization which eventually reflects on the outcome. Culture can be termed good or bad depending upon the perception of the workers. Culture is an important attribute for the overall development of the organization in today’s dynamic environment.
