How to write my Culture document

Use this template to describe the culture of an organization or group. Culture generally refers to attitudes and behaviors among groups of people but may also refer to traditions music food tastes in décor and clothing and so forth. Every group of people from nation to single family has culture. For example church is an example of an organization with very well defined culture in which certain attitudes and behaviors are actively encouraged and others discouraged. One business may have rigid culture with dress code and strict adherence to written regulations; another may have more flexible culture and celebrate independence and innovation and allow skateboards in the hallways. Introduce the importance of culture here. Why did you feel the need to include this discussion in your proposal. Are you attempting to create certain culture in new organization or change the existing culture of an established group. Describe the existing culture or the one you are hoping to create here. Items to discuss are. What is the central focus of the group or organization. Who is accepted within the culture and who is excluded. What makes this group different from others. What are the rules or standards. How do these cultural rules affect the behavior and attitudes of the group. You may want to compare and contrast one culture with another especially if you are proposing to change the existing culture of an organization.
