Organizational Culture Analysis Organizational tends to be shared by all or most of the members in a social group, this is something that has been passed down from senior members, and the younger members have to follow the suit. This will shape structures and behavior perceptions of the culture. Cultures have to be studied at a national level, this way whatever culture you are from we will understand you.
