When corporate culture goes wrong, how bad can it get? What’s right and wrong with the culture at your workplace? It’s hard to form a clear value judgment on something you live with every day, but a diagnostic survey can help. What happens when poor organizational culture permeates a company?
Here are a few symptoms:
- Expectations are not clearly set for all employees.
- Employees fill the void with what they believe to be the expected/desired behaviors.
- Often, these behaviors are not aligned with desired behaviors.
- Managers are disappointed with performance results.
- Managers hold employees accountable for missed performance.
- Employees are frustrated that they did not know what was expected.
