Development,rites of passage,degradation,enhancement,and integration sustain organizational culture.

These five factors are key to sustaining organizational culture as they allow for the evolution and maintenance of the culture over time. Development allows for growth and adaptation to changes in the external environment, rites of passage help new members assimilate into the organization, degradation can occur if the culture becomes toxic or unethical, enhancement involves reinforcing positive aspects of the culture, and integration ensures that all members of the organization share common values and beliefs.
