The culture of an organization establishes acceptable behavior inside it. An organization’s self-image, internal operations, relationships with the outside world, and expectations for the future are all manifestations of its organizational culture, which encompasses the expectations, experiences, philosophy, and values that bind it together. It is predicated on accepted attitudes, values, traditions, and written and unwritten laws that have grown over time and are seen as legitimate.
