| INTRODUCTION |
| |
| A study by a McKinsey team that analyzed upward of 100,000 questionnaires to uncover the practices of 400 business units in 230 companies around the world found that an environment that encourages openness, trust, and challenge (culture) was critical to organizations that performed well. |
| |
| When organizations have positive work culture, even employees with average skills give high levels of performance. And outperforming employees get noticed and rewarded. Therefore building a positive work culture benefits both organizations and employees. Conversely, when the work culture of an organization is not conducive, then the best structures, systems and policies do not help in ensuring high quality performance. In extreme conditions, “bad” work culture often leads to violence, thefts, sabotage, deliberate wastage and other forms of aberrant behavior. |
