What is Organizational Culture ?

According to Richard Barrett, organizational culture is a reflection of the values, beliefs, and behaviors that define how an organization operates and relates to its employees, customers, and its environment.

Barrett argues that organizational culture is the soul of the company and is closely linked to the level of consciousness of the organization.

Barrett developed the Seven Levels of Consciousness Model to help organizations understand and improve their culture. These levels are:

1. Viability : Focused on economic survival and employee safety.
2. Relationships : Values internal and external relationships, promoting harmony and open communication.
3. Performance : Strives for excellence and best practices.
4. Evolution/Transformation : Oriented towards change, innovation and continuous learning.
5. Internal Cohesion : Promotes trust, commitment and cooperation.
6. Contribution : Focused on positive impact and social responsibility.
7. Service : Seeks the well-being of society and future generations

This model provides a useful framework for measuring and making organizational culture tangible , facilitating the creation of deeper and more authentic relationships between stakeholders.

The success rate of companies in improving their organizational culture can vary significantly depending on the approach used. Here are some relevant data:

Personalized Approach

Companies that take a personalized approach, tailoring strategies to the specific needs of their employees and teams, often report higher employee satisfaction and engagement. For example, companies like Netflix and Zappos have achieved lower employee turnover and increased productivity thanks to their personalized approaches [1] .

Structured Methods

On the other hand, companies that implement structured methods, such as recognition and reward systems, ongoing training, and open communication, have also shown positive results. These methods can lead to improved employee retention, organizational climate, and productivity [2] .

Success Comparison

There is no exact percentage that directly compares the two approaches, as success depends on multiple factors, including the industry, company size, and the specific implementation of the strategies. However, studies indicate that both approaches can be effective if applied correctly and adapted to the organization’s needs. [3] [2] . How we do it at VALUO DESARROLLO – EmpresasConAlma.eu
