Week 3_ Post 1

In Chapter 5 we turn our attention to cultural studies of organizations and communication. In an organizational culture there are cultural elements. One of those elements is rituals, which is a culture’s basic values and can range in scope from personal, day- to- day routines for accomplishing tasks to annual organization- wide celebrations of top performance. I am in a sorority and every Monday nights we have meetings that can be considered as an organization ritual. These meetings allow us to get together and discuss upcoming events and bring up questions and concerns. Since we have over 60 members, they keep us all on the same page.
