The Cold Part of Corporate Culture


I worked in a company that recently initiated their Corporate Culture identity.

There is nothing wrong on the suface with the key culture identified and in fact, it look almost flawless from a company's operative perspective....all except that I personally felt those factors to be too business objective driven and lacking in EQ. The more I looked at the key culture identities, the more it send shivers down by spines.
Are we initiating a business culture or a corporate culture, I wonder ?

The compassionate and quality of life part of corporate culture is sadly missing. What is in there are all the identities to attempt to mould people with an end point to generate more money for the company.

Having done so and putting up an internal publicity announcement with posters in the company's conference room seems to put an end to the culture saga.

Is this something that can be changed overnight or is this something that can only be learned by good leadership examples ? Is there a good leadership example to begin with ?

Is this how a company corporate culture should be to thrive in today's cutthroat business world ?

Was there an attempt to learn from great company like HP ?
