Steps to unifying the company culture
The rationale for the steps above.
The structure of leadership plays an essential role in spearheading the company’s activities and, as a result, should be clearly defined in a manner that both parties entering the merger understands.Since different companies have different cultures, research must be conducted to determine the differences and make attempts to reach a consensus to help overcome the disparities and reach an agreement. This enables common ground for cultural integration.
The communication council utilizes experience and professionalism to come up with a message architecture of why the merger is important for the company, the individuals, and what new behaviors and attitudes are needed for the success of the new company.It is crucial to come up with the new culture after the parties involved have conducted research and reached an agreement, hence the definition of the new culture(Denison et al., 1).The celebration of the new culture is a sign of togetherness and a willingness to work together.The new company’s culture is better expressed in its mission vision and values.
Communication plays a vital role in any company; hence a proper communication plan should be defined. Regular and frequent communication via the use of social media, online platforms, web-based employee forums to brand the culture of the company.To demonstrate the success and progress of the new culture, it is essential to conduct benchmarking to assess the understanding over time.
