A strong organizational culture works like a strong social glue, which bonds members of an organization together through shared goals. This builds loyalty and commitment among the group and makes them less likely to leave their tight knit organization.
Although organizations with strong cultures experience less turnover, it doesn't mean that a strong culture is better than a weak culture in every instance. A strong culture is difficult to change in an organization and can stifle innovation, because members of the organization are used to doing their jobs exactly the same way.
Weak cultures can be advantageous for organizations that benefit from independent thought and innovation by their members. In an unstable environment, organizations with weak cultures often function better than organizations with strong cultures, because they are much more adaptable to change. In order for an organization to succeed, the culture of that organization must fit the environment in which it operates.
The differences between weak and strong organizational culture:
A key consequence of weak culture is that there is greater need for procedures, policies and bureaucracy in order to get things done in the desired way, with in turn can add substantially to organisational costs.
A key benefit of a strong culture is that there is less need for detailed policies and procedures because the "way things are done around here" is well understood and accepted.
Some research by Sorenson (2002) looked into the relationship between the strength of culture and business performance. The research found that strong cultures were best able to deliver a successful strategy in fairly stable operating conditions.
The organizational culture is made by the organizational leadership. A strong (positive) culture promotes the organizationa's values and supports teams efforts to achieve organizational goals. A weak (negative) culture usually results from lack of organizational leadership and usually diminish the team sperit and dilutes common goals to be superceeded by personal ones.
an organisational culture that is prone to avail opportunities by maximising its strength and is aware of its weakness to ward off the threats can be termed as a strong organisational culture.
