The full question is: Management structures can influence corporate culture. Identify and describe one management structure and discuss how it can have a positive impact on corporate culture. Outlines the benefits of having a positive corporate culture for a business in terms of 2 stages of the employment cycle. (10 marks)
I reckon it can actually be argued with like almost any structure, couldn't it? I'm seeing some people having different opinions here, like I might actually say the functional structure, since everyone knows what their role is in the organisation and there's less confusion-based conflicts that promote neg corp culture
Or like matrix since then everyone works together and it's more of a connected corporate culture, in comparison to the functional structure where everyone does their own thing and the culture is quite separated, like the Advertising department might have a slight variation of culture from the Marketing department
2 stages of the employment cycle wtf??? Okay umm
Maybe when new employees get introduced to the company through induction processes and whatnot, they can see that there's a positive corp culture within the organisation which makes them stay for the comfort and positive environment it provides?
Maybe even with termination you could say resignation might be reduced since similarly people don't want to leave, and even when retrenchment occurs people are less resentful so the org's reputation doesn't get as damaged as it otherwise might have.
(Also contributes to the idea that the business is ethically and socially responsible if you say that the positive corporate culture evokes management to deal with redundancies well, helping redundant employees through the process and even for them to find new employment)
