Abstract
When the organizational culture is well managed, effective communication is enhanced, and when effective communication is applied, the organisation’s goals and objectives become achievable. On this premise, this paper looks at the organizational culture (which may be internally or externally induced) which accounts for the uniqueness of each organization. The culture in turn defines the operations in the organization. In addition, the organizational goals and objectives act as the propeller of the culture – moving the whole organization towards a definite direction. The paper also discusses he role of managers as cosmopolites in organisations who often interact with the external environment. They come in introducing new ideas to enrich the organizational culture or to prune the existing ones for better productive values and beliefs. Hence, this paper is also concerned with how to manage organizational culture for effective organizational communication.
