Changing an organizations culture can be very difficult and challenging for any company. An organizational culture if is build on the founders values, the industry and business environment, the national culture and the senior leaders’ vision and behavior (Kreitner & Kinicki, 2013).

Our organizational culture was set into standard many ages ago. The military has a set of guidelines that every leader and subordinate are expected to follow. One good thing about the regulations is that they are very broad, and it allows each leader to command their companies as they feel fit. As long as the procedures fall within the given guidelines. The military organization has definitely changed over time as the leadership changed, and I feel that the military is very open to change as long as it will better organization in a positive way. Adapt and overcome is one of the Army’s motto and skill they teach.
