P1 Critical analysis of the current organizational culture of Verdant Leisure and their impact over
organizational performance
Charles Handy Model of Organizational Culture
The culture of the organization is one of the factors which influence the behaviour of
employees and team members and affects the performance of the business. The current
organizational culture of the Verdant company is quite positive and encouraging. In order to
further analyse the culture of the organization the Charles Handy model of OC will be taken.
Impact of this model on employees behaviour and organization
In this model, Charles Handy divided the organizational culture into four category such as
Role, task, power and personal culture.
 Role culture: This category of the organizational culture state role and responsibility of
each and every employee with the help of which the employees know in advance what
they need to do.
 Task culture: In this category, the organization culture needs to be flexible and based on
the projects so that results are going to be achieved by the company. As the employees of
Verdant know their task in advance but they also make changes in their activities as per
the customers taste and preferences. But because of the low team dynamics the company
faces difficulty in achieving the success by adapting the new opportunity.

 Power Culture: Here, the culture of the organization lack in centralization and the
impact of which teams get demotivated. For example; the managers of the Verdant
leisure directly communicate with the staffs without informing leaders and also expect
quick and agile response from them (Pirow, 2021). But this creates difficulty for the
employees to work in an introspective environment.
 Personal culture: In this category, the organizational culture of the Verdant Leisure
company is such that the employees and teams are directed by the top management and
leaders.
Issues which are related to this model
On one side they feel less stress because of top support and but also feel difficulty in
managing their work as they are self-directed personal. Any small change in rules and regulation
affects them badly. That’s why the Verdant have to incorporate flexibility in their business
culture. For example; Verdant leisure staff know in advance what they need to do such as
managing the parks, arranging catering service for the customers etc. so that they can spend time
with their family and friends (Wood and et.al., 2019). But the main issue arises here is that the
employees are less adaptable to the environmental changes.
Alternative model
The alternative model which are suggestible to the company are Schein's Model of
organizational culture. With the help of this model the company can explain the concept and
aims of the culture of the workplace and also explain how such an environment affects the
organization overall performance.
Current culture of Verdant organization
Verdant organization main objective is to provide the best place and park area to the
customer to relax and relive their stress. The company wants to expand its business share and
grow to all around the world. Currently, company follow the task culture at their workplace in
which every employees assign the work as per specific task. Not only that, they need to complete
those task on time whether that task in related to their interest area or not. This is helpful for
developing the skills and mind of the employees in all area but sometime causes heavy loss to
the company because of mistake. So, in order to cope this the company is advisable that they
