Assignment task: This week, we learned about organizational structures and cultures -- and how they can influence performance. For this week's discussion, analyze how organizational structures can help to define organizational culture. Explain how leaders can thoughtfully design their company's structure in a way that it shapes the desired culture into an environment that positively affects performance. Be sure to use concepts you learned this week.
Show support for your arguments by referring to at least one scholarly source, using an appropriate in-text citation, and a complete reference at the end. You can research the Virtual Library Business Database to find a scholarly article about the impact of structure on culture...or the impact of culture on performance.
