The national culture,customs,and societal norms of a country do not shape the cultures of organizations operating within a country.

The national culture, customs, and societal norms of a country do have an impact on the cultures of organizations operating within that country. The values, beliefs, and practices of a society influence the behavior and work styles of individuals within an organization, as well as the overall organizational culture. For example, in countries with a collectivist culture, teamwork and collaboration are highly valued and may be reflected in the organizational culture of companies operating in that country. Similarly, in countries with a hierarchical culture, the organizational structure and leadership style of local companies may reflect this cultural norm.
