**3. Developing organizational climate**

The term organizational climate refers to the degree to which a company encourages its workers to express their unique personalities and ideas on the job. An organization's mood, or organizational climate, as some call it, can evolve slowly over time and fluctuate often depending on how much attention is paid to it [27]. The climate of an organization can be gauged with the help of questionnaires and other instruments. The health of an organization's culture can be gauged by measuring employee satisfaction on a variety of factors. A company may, for instance, find out through its staff that, while its constraint system is robust, its decision-making procedures are in effect [1]. Several variables impact the atmosphere in an organization. The culture of an organization can be improved with the help of incentives like annual bonuses, parties, and presents. When employees are trusted, valued, heard, and given opportunities to contribute, it's a sign of a positive work environment. When companies invest in their employees' personal and professional development, they boost morale and productivity [28]. The morale and output of workers can be affected by the atmosphere of the workplace. However, in order to achieve these desirable outcomes, a company must make substantial investments in a number of critical areas. The following are domains where the influence of organizational climate can be seen.

#### **3.1 Constraints**

The importance of setting limits and limits in the workplace cannot be overstated. When workers have clear goals and responsibilities but are also encouraged to think

beyond the box, they tend to excel. However, it is important for businesses to avoid placing too many restrictions on their employees, as this can have a negative impact on morale and output.

### **3.2 Communication**

Organizational climate is enhanced when employees feel they receive constructive, fair, and regular feedback from their leaders [29]. They also appreciate the opportunity to be heard on issues that matter to them and their daily work. In other words, communication works best when all parties have a fairly equal amount of time to share their thoughts.

#### **3.3 Decision-making**

Buy-in is a powerful motivator. That is why it is good for an organization to seek their employees' input on important decisions, especially when it comes to individual and departmental goals. If employees feel involved with business efforts from beginning to end, they are more likely to feel a stronger sense of ownership and accountability.

#### **3.4 Policies and procedures**

Employees can be a valuable resource in developing better policies and procedures for their work units and even companywide. By being on the front lines and experiencing processes firsthand, they can help root out inefficiencies, errors, and discriminatory practices. As a result, organizational climate improves.

#### **3.5 Infrastructure**

Organizational climate is also affected by infrastructure, which includes facilities, equipment, technologies, and other tools that help employees do their work. Though some innovations in infrastructure may be more challenging to a workforce at first (e.g., getting new computers), a forward-thinking, responsive organizational climate usually appeals to employees. Organizational climate is important for many reasons. It establishes constraint systems so employees know appropriate boundaries. It also drives how organizations communicate, make decisions, establish policies and procedures, and contribute innovatively to their fields.

#### **3.6 Classification of organizational climate**

All organizations are unique, which means each one differs in organizational climate from one another sharing peoples of different mindset and behavior. As cultural climate are the recurring patterns of behavior, attitudes and feelings that characterize life in the organization, while an organization culture tends to be deep and stable [30]. However, they can often be categorized under some common organizational climate types, four of which are explained.

1.**People-Oriented Climate** The organizational culture that includes a core set of values and puts its onus on care and concern for the employees' results in peopleoriented climate.


### **3.7 Technological impact on cultural norms**

In recent years, technology has had a profound effect on culture, causing shifts in norms and priorities. These shifts will become more obvious as technology advances, increasing the potential for cultural friction. In this paper, we'll look at how technological advancements have influenced culture, how those shifts have affected values and conventions, and how that might lead to friction between groups with different worldviews. **"***Technology is available in the market for a price. But what is not available in the market for a price are Values, which translates to – Culture, Empathy, Ethics, Transparency, and Trust***."** (Arundhati Ashoka, 23)*.*In recent decades, technological advancements have fueled a wide range of cultural shifts. The emergence of social media has been one of the most transformative factors since it has radically affected people's habits of sharing information and interacting with one another. The advent of social media has made it easier for people to communicate with one another across geographic and cultural boundaries. Because of this, individuals are more open to discussing their beliefs and ideals with one another, which has altered their perspectives on life [31]. The expansion of online shopping is another example of how technology has influenced cultural shifts. The advent of online marketplaces has revolutionized the way commodities are bought and sold, making it simpler than ever to gain access to a global market. As a result, people's perspectives on consumption and the worth of material goods have shifted. The proliferation of mobile devices has also contributed significantly to the shift in values. Thanks to smart phones and other mobile devices, we can now get our hands on news, music, and movies whenever and wherever we choose. The result is a shift in how we value social interaction and how we spend our free time [32]. The idea of technology is similarly intricate and varied. It's the methods employed to resolve issues or accomplish objectives. Technology has the potential to better people's lives, but it also has the potential to cause them harm [33]. There are numerous ways in which technological advancements may alter cultural norms. It has the potential to alter people's modes of expression, education, employment, and socialization. People's perspectives on themselves and the world can also be altered by technological advancements [34]. Technology-driven cultural transformation has the potential to spark serious conflicts [35]. Emergence of new technology might pose a threat to established norms and values. People with contrasting norms and beliefs may find themselves at odds as a result. Technology can influence cultures in a number of different ways. Introducing novel concepts and ideals is one approach. For instance, the proliferation of online communication has facilitated the exchange of ideas and ideals among people from different parts of the world. Traditional patterns of living can also be altered as a result of technological advancements. People's ways of working and living have shifted as a result of the advent of automation and the resulting displacement of
