ORGANISATIONS AND BEHAVIOURTask 11.1 Compare and contrast the structures and cultures of the GSK with any other similar organizationLike every organization, GSK or GlaxoSmithKline plc has an objective to have flexible, healthy as well as the high-performing workforce. The organization also aims to have a positive impact on the people from the corners of the world. The company implements their goals and objectives by seeking to build an organizational culture which will be guided by its values(Combination Products Case Study (Novartis, GSK, Abbott, Merck/Schering-Plough),2008). On the other hand, the organization has a broad range of dedicated employees who aremore concerned about the well-being and health programs. The structure and cultures of the company support its staff and workers to speak up provide more power to them. On the other hand, the culture of an organization defines the power of the employees along with the teams.The structure is concerned about the power of leadership and their influences. GlaxoSmithKline is also committed to the sustainability of the environment. The working environment has an open-space outline, which is to a significant degree welcoming(Roche, GSK & Eli Lilly Case Studies: Using CRM to Improve Patient Compliance, 2004). It allows a person to have a quick visit to the associates of the company from time to time. Besides that, the organization provides a flexible time to the employees regarding working hours. Thegreat solidarity of fundamental social orders is consistently shown through a generous sharingof risks and prizes among professionals. The inside qualities of GSK are a patient focus, respectability, respect for people and frankness. Additionally, the company focuses on needs of customers and patient in research. It also ensures that the safety of purchaser and the patient is supreme, through dedicated control of product quality as well as strong supply. The regular working culture of the company depends on the foundation of basic respect and viablesearching for, regarding and drawing on the differing learning, perspectives, experience and Page 3 of 18

Also, the association attempts to make an atmosphere of openness which implies talking reality about what it does and is occupied with challenges and examinations on constant change. 1.2 Explain how the relationship between the organization's structure and culture can impact on the performance of GSKThe culture and structure of GlaxoSmithKline have a significant influence on the employees and customers(End-of-care: ethical dimensions, 2011). The cultural section of the organization consists of the ways in which the people have a common relationship and understandings among each other. Moreover, the workplace of the company has an open environment which includes many opportunities for socializing amongst the colleagues. The culture of the company impacts the communication channels between the employees and the customers. It helps in the development of a healthy relationship between the employees and the customers. Consequently, it leads to the client satisfaction and retention of employees. Based on organizational culture, GSK is committed to performing with integrity. The company acts fairly and legally within the spirit of laws, policies and regulations(Litterer, 2014). The cultural value of the company impacts on the organizational structure. GlaxoSmithKline follows a hierarchical structure which is imperative to maintain the culturalaspect. The organization employs around thirty-three thousand from the corners of the world. The people coming from all around the world has diverse cultures in them. Due to their diversities in cultures, the organization may face communication issues, and the leaders take the responsibilities to solve these problems. These peoples also have different behavior and beliefs. The personal characteristics of individuals within GSK affect the behavior of individuals at work(Etzioni, 2013). Moreover, the cultural values of the company guide its employees by implementing regular actions. The value of GSK is like acting with integrity, functioning with transparency as well as demonstrating respect for people. Page 4 of 18
