Answer 1

Ans1) Organisational culture plays a very important role in meeting social needs, ensuring balance between personal and professional life , staying motivated towards work and enjoying the working hours.

When there is an absence of favourable work environment and corporate culture a person is not motivated towards working hard, he is not diligent and will thus hate the hours spend in an environment where nobody is friendly and person is isolated.

My decision in this situation will be to stay and try to change the organisational culture as giving up even before trying and adjusting will be loosing an opportunity in void.

Thus my decision is backed by the fact that my efforts will be towards communicating and explaining the concerns and issues in the culture and , standards of org. and values or principles of organisation so as to act in favour of organisation and try best not to incorporate a authoritarian nature for directing employees.
