Organizational culture is defined as a shared system of meanings that is unique to the organization. It encompasses the values, beliefs, norms, and practices that shape the behavior and interactions of members within the organization. This culture influences how employees perceive and respond to various situations, and it is a critical factor in organizational identity and effectiveness.

I feel like I’ve seen a question like this before, and it was about shared values. That makes me think B is the right choice.

I remember we discussed how culture can be influenced by diversity, but I don’t think that’s the main definition. Maybe option A?
