A Story of Organizational Culture

The organization I am going to look at here is Google. Google has one of the best HR departments in the world. Google is that company that hires competent employees who are smart and remarkably determined. Ability over experience is usually the key. The company is global. It includes people from all walks of life speaking different languages but with a common goal. Google is headquartered in Mountain View, California (Googleplex) and has more than 70 offices in over 40 countries worldwide ("Google", 2015).
The Google HR department ensures that there are efficient training programs and performance management to expend the hr capabilities (Guest, 2016). The HR department conducts regular reviews of the training programs to ensure that they meet the organizational needs.
             A company is complete due to its employees. Google workers are all over the world. The type of people afforded jobs is intelligent, clever, determined, focused and always ambitious for success. As mentioned earlier, Google more interested the ability to perform duties appropriately rather than the experience one has. This prefers substance to form (Mims, 2015).
Google employees are very much privileged people (Guest, 2016). The company provides them with never-ending perks to make sure that their life at the company is worthwhile. The employees are provided with gourmet food and snacks for breakfast, lunch and even dinner for those staying up late. All this is for free! One would argue that being fed and staying healthy is the key to success. All in all, this gives them a morale-boosting drive.
Leaders at Google ought to have top notch qualities. Such quality includes having cognitive ability. These are smart people who can be curious enough to develop solutions to problems in the world that are seen to be lacking any fix. This enhances invention and innovation a great deal. Also, this brings about growth to the company and its ability to deal with challenging work. Success is thus guaranteed ("Google," 2014).
