Siemens.
Organisation is a setup where individual come together and to work for a common goal.
It is very important that employees should work in coordination in order to achieve the desire
goals as well as for smooth functioning of the company. Every organisation has certain values
and follows some policies as well as guidelines which differentiate it from others. The culture of
the organisation is formed by principles and belief. The whole culture of the company decides

the way workers interact with each others as well as from external parties. All companies have
its own culture. The culture of Siemens is very effective as well as efficient as it is based on
teamwork culture.
Handy culture model is one of the best model that defined the culture of the
organisation which are power, task, role and personal culture. (Deci and Ryan2014)
Power Culture- There are many organisations where the power remain in the hand of
only few people as well as they are authorized to take decisions. Those whose have the power in
the organisation enjoy the privileges at the workplace but these people are very essential for the
organisation as they control the company in right manner. In Siemens company, power culture is
present as the roles and responsibility are assigned by the top authorities. But sometimes it is not
good because of strictness from superiors is very high.
Task Culture- This is one of the best culture which is entirely based on the team-working
and coordination. In order solve the serious problems within organisation, they form a team so
that it will be easily solved (Chumg, Seaton and Ding, 2016). This culture present the work in
innovative manner. Siemens company also follow this culture as there are also teams to solve the
critical problems.
Role Culture- It is the culture where roles and responsibilities are delegated as per the
interest, quality, qualification and skills of employees. In this culture there is no bias and
cheating and it is best culture compare to all. Each and every employees are accountable for
there roles. In Siemens company, the roles and responsibilities are assigned by human resource
manager according to the skills and qualification of the employees.
Person Culture- There are many organisations where workers feel that they are more
important that company, as many organisations follow this culture which is called as person
culture. In this culture, every employees thought for their own self. This culture is not followed
in the Siemens company.
