Organizational culture is the symbolic system of communication and connection in the organization including intangible linkages as beliefs, values, behavioral norms. It is the indivisible element of the organization in its unconscious set of programs, prescribing how to behave, act, communicate. Organizational culture is the sphere where managers deal with spirituality and leading values, attitudes. Work-related attitudes present an important managerial focus, they usually define work behaviors and actively influence productivity and overall employee performance levels.
