To what extent does a company’s culture wind up reflecting the personality of its founder? To what extent does it reflect the values of the country it was founded in? Which seems to be a stronger force in the case of IKEA?2. IKEA operates in a number of countries around the world. The governments and people in those countries may have different attitudes about working hours, diversity efforts, pay levels, and political and environmental activism. Should companies alter their policies and activities in a way that is sensitive to such differences?3. Assume you were an employee at an organization like IKEA, and Fortune surveyed you for its 100 Best Companies to Work For list. To what extent would your attitudes be shaped not just by internal work policies, but also by how the company engages with society?

the views, attitudes and even the vision of the founders influence organization's culture deeply. this can be seen if you compare different organization developed by people of different culture around the world.

the national values of a country influences individuals and this in turn influences a company's culture. if you look at far eastern nations such as Japan, south asian nations such as india and western nations such as USA, their work ethics, perspective of the market, the way they treat diversity and how they manage conflicts are totally different.

and yes indeed, the companies must change their policies, procedures and even alter their cultures to Adapt to the social and cultural values of the time and in different countries (if company is operating in several countries.) if not, the society will reject the company and its products and this could lead to unnecessary conflicts in terms of politics and legal and can spell the downfall of the company in that region.
