Abstract
This paper is about organizational culture, and
an analysis of this culture at a particular financial company. Any
organization has its set of behaviors and norms that characterize it as
the company it is. Its culture is what really identifies the category
that each and every company fall into. A particular aspect of the
culture has to do with the way employees at this company see this
culture as it has an impact on them. Socialization is seen as the
process by which a new employee adjusts to the culture within the
organization. This research revolves around the issue of how
employees at Sanlam perceive the type of culture that the company
has, and then how they, in return, react to it.
