Organizational Culture Analysis

Symbols of culture are called artifacts. Artifacts are the  most visible and accessible level of culture. These include behaviors, stories,  rituals (everyday practices that are repeated frequently), and symbols (e.g.,  company logos, company colors). For example, the president of a company  volunteering at Habitat for Humanity is an artifact of culture. An example of  symbols as an artifact of culture is Ashford University’s shield that serves as  our logo and is printed on transcripts, diplomas and letterhead paper. Submit a  two- to three-page paper (excluding the title and reference pages) describing  the culture of either your current or past place of employment.  

• Your paper should provide examples of and address each of  the following topics:
• Observable artifacts
• Espoused values (These are what organizational members say  they value, like ethical practice.)
• Enacted values (These are reflected in the way individuals  actually behave.)

In addition, describe how each item listed above impacts the  values and culture of the organization.

Your paper must use a minimum of two scholarly sources, in  addition to the textbook. Your paper must also follow the APA Style guide.
