Organizational Culture One-Pager: This “iceberg” model illustrates the visible aspects of culture (e.g., strategy, goals, and policies), and less visible aspects such as values, beliefs, and shared assumptions that define workplace culture. This eye-catching imagery can be displayed in-office to remind employees of the foundations of a strong, supportive workplace dynamic.
