Categorization of Variables of the Organizational Culture at Netflix

/in /by

Overview: For this assignment, you will apply what you know about Watzlawicks iceberg model of communication to analyze the organizational culture at Netflix. To do this, you will write a one-page paper, in which you identify examples of each of the four variables of the organizational culture at Netflix, which are defined in the prompt below. You will find these examples in the following readings and slide deck about Netflix:
Library Article: How Netflix Reinvented HR
Article: The Woman Behind the Netflix Culture Doc
Presentation: Netflix Culture: Freedom & Responsibility
This task provides you with key insights that will assist you in completing Section II: Cultural Analysis Overview of Milestone One. Prompt: Your submission must include these critical elements:
1. Examples from the readings and slide deck of the four variables of the organizational culture at Netflix. The four variables are: observable artifacts, espoused values, enacted values, and basic assumptions, as defined by Kreitner & Kinicki (2013) in their book, Organizational Behavior:
Observable Artifacts. These are observable components of a companys organizational culture, i.e., acronyms, manner of dress, awards, myths, stories about the organization, published lists of values, values reinforced via observable rituals and ceremonies, decorations, company brand features, etc.
Espoused Values. These are the explicitly stated values and norms that are preferred by the organization.
Enacted Values. These are the values and norms that are exhibited by the employees, which may be the same or differ from the stated espoused
values.
Basic Assumptions. These are the organizational values that have become so taken for granted over time that they have become assumptions
that guide organizational behavior.
2. Sources of the examples of each of the four variables from the readings and slide deck, including page/slide numbers. (For easy reference, download the PDF version of the readings, which are paginated.)
Guidelines for Submission: Your chart must be submitted as a one-page Microsoft Word document with 12-point Times New Roman font and one-inch margins. It will be evaluated using the rubric.
