When we see a vital organization, we see prosperity, happiness and competency. A vital organization is good to its community, great to its employees and equal to its customers. In an article authored by SHRM, A strong culture can bring benefits such as enhanced trust and cooperation, fewer disagreements and more-efficient decision-making. Culture also provides an informal control mechanism, a strong sense of identification with the organization and shared understanding among employees about what is important (SHRM, n.d.). Culture and competency are vital in the success and identity of the organization.
