Answer 1

Answer:

The twelve are all important mechanisms for embedding organizational culture, but personally, I believe the following are the most important ones when you are referring to social connections between coworkers:

• 3. Rites and rituals PART OF THE ORGANIZATION'S CULTURE AND VALUES
• 4. Stories, legends, and myths PART OF THE ORGANIZATION'S CULTURE AND VALUES
• 5. Leader reactions to crises LEADERS ARE SPECIALLY NEEDED WHEN THINGS ARE NOT GOING WELL, AND LEADERSHIP CAN UNITE A GROUP
• 6. Role modeling, training, and coaching IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE PERSON BEING TRAINED TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE ORGANIZATION'S CULTURE WORKS

• 11. Organizational structure HORIZONTAL ORGANIZATIONS FOSTER SOCIAL CONNECTIONS AND EQUALITY WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION

Explanation:

Social connections at work refer to how coworkers relate to each other and they are the backbone of the company's culture. Social connections are positive because they can increase your psychological well-being (we are all social animals that need to feel that we belong), your physical health and your work productivity.
