Question

Culture is an essential element of organizing in the P-O-L-C framework. Do you think Google has a strong culture? What would it take to make changes in that culture, for better or for worse?

Answer 1

Answer: Yes, I believe wholeheartedly that Google has a strong culture which is admired by internet users all over the world because, to a very great extent, it has served people with quality information and given its employees a foundation to display their talents and contribute ideas to the growth of the company.

Google is much more interested in enhancing its users’ experiences, developing its employees’ talents, and making everyone happy; these are the major reasons why Google has always been right at the top. There is no good reason for Google to change its culture. For changes to be made in the culture for the better, both Google’s customers and employers would have to start disliking the culture, or they would have to start looking for a better culture: Google would have to lose its top position to its competitors, and start experiencing great loss of profits.
