Culture is like soil, the organization is like land. The more fertile the soil, the better nourishment the crop and plant product will be. The quality of soil has to be maintained, taken care of with fertilizers, manure, etc. That, in turn, translates into good quality products. Therefore, the fertility of the soil is linked with the quality and quantity of products. The same is true with culture in an organization. Most plans, goals fail perhaps because the organization fails to set the right culture and in providing the right environment for growth.
Navigate through culture: How and why does culture exist? What are its forms? And how can any social organization "set" a unique culture? A culture results from a lot of factors: The endeavors, goals of the leaders, their personal philosophies, philosophy to reach the goal, their emotions in various scenarios and so on. It can be linked to things that they value. Some value innovations, some believe in driving profits, some reward employees, some are customer friendly and so on. Many want a mix of all these in different ratios. Hence, the cultures are as diverse as people or diversity in any other species. So many thoughts, ideas, visions, their mix in different proportions result in all these diversities.
Corporate culture and societal culture mutually influence
with each other. How can any social organization "set" a unique culture? Every organization must and should remember that they are a part of society; society is not a part of them. That is not good for society will never be good for them. When an organization’s culture is more innovative and open than its community or region in which it locates, it will make a positive influence on its ecosystem and the surrounding environment. On the other side, the out of dated societal culture will also make negative culture impact on the businesses living in it. Culture is a collective mindset, habit, and behavior, only the positive and innovative culture can push the human world forward!

Forms and practices are built around culture. Culture is not built around forms and practices. There is a culture of handling things and nothing disturbs the culture under all circumstances. So best practices, the various endeavors they pursue or choose not to pursue are probably based on the culture of an organization. Many things are sacrificed just for the sake of culture, at the same time, there are examples where a huge goal is pursued simply because that is the culture of that particular organization.
