Organizational culture is a set of shared values, the unwritten rules which are often taken

for granted, that guide the employees towards acceptable and rewarding behaviour. A strong
organizational culture helps a business work like a well-oiled machine, where every employee
acts in-line with the company’s values. Engaging employees in companies with a good work
culture is much easier because they all know what needs to be done, why and how, and they
work together to achieve it.
Here are the 15 attributes which I think are required for a good organizational culture:

1) Respect/Fairness 9) Teamwork
2) Trust/Integrity 10) Learning Opportunities
3) Change/Adaptability 11 Meaning/Purpose
4) Result Orientation 12) Communication
5) Employee Engagement 13) Decision Making
6) Responsibility/Accountability 14) Goal/Strategies
7) Transparency 15) Feedback
8) Employee Rewards

Other important attributes should also be considered as follows:


Commitment: An organization its employees should invest in long term relationship with
its employees and should never laid off an employee even in the worst of times. Job Security
and freedom of engagement at all levels should be provided.

Ethics:- It is the code of moral principal and values that distinguishes the right behaviour
from wrong.

Empowerment:- Employee should be given control responsibility and challenge in a


constructive manner that helps them to learn in the process and execution.

Work-Life Balance:- This is very important for a more stress-free environment in the
organization. Things like work from home, time flexibility are necessary for employee
satisfaction.
