Shaping Organisational Culture explores the vital role of organisational culture in shaping individual and collective attitudes, behaviours, and performance within modern workplaces. Positioned within the fields of Organisational Behaviour and Human Resource Management, the book examines how values, beliefs, leadership, communication, and power dynamics influence workplace culture and organisational effectiveness.

The book begins with foundational concepts and theories of organisational culture before progressing to topics such as leadership, motivation, employee engagement, diversity and inclusion, communication, and cultural change management.
