Company culture

There are acceptable default behaviours, "how we do things here" which people learn through osmosis and which can become habitual. If an organisation is not pro-actively defining its culture, it will assume whatever default modes there happen to be. For example:

• Do people trust their colleagues by default or exercise caution?
• What's the default atmosphere in the organisation? Are people excited to show up at work?
• Do people care about their work, or do they just tick checkboxes?
