Information:
This United States Postal Service is a current company that I work for. I choose to write about them in particular because of I’ve gain a great deal of experience in a real work place from being at this company. With delivering more than 200 billion pieces of mail per year and connecting to every U.S. home and business. We are said to be integral to our nation and its economy and seek the best leadership available to continue our excellence in operational performance. The Postal Service had a tradition of on time delivery and customer satisfaction, but due to budget cuts there has been a decline. In the station I work out of there are approximately 75 employees and 5 managers. This company has been around for over 200 years with the same Vision, Purpose, and Direction.

Current culture:
The primary skill expressed based off of the OCI is the need for power. No matter what position you play in the company everyone needs their voice to be heard. In the service and delivery department the two most important powerful ones were of course the Postmasters, who hired, fired and who had control over all the aspects of service and delivery decision making and a say so in some parts of the overall company progress. Then in my department of delivery I have a few supervisors who didn’t really care how the employees felt, it was what upper management wanted no matter if it was right or wrong. Then you have the managers who demand power but really don’t deserve it and of course the employees who feel like they should have power because of their position while working at the company. According to the Humanistic Synergistic Inc. competitive culture is rewards for overly accomplishment but in this organization it’s required! Rewards are given based on favoritism. Lastly the weakest leadership skill is affiliate culture. There was maybe 10% of this style
