I think that culture and structure influence each other but they are separate entities within a company. Culture is more of how people work and interact with each other while structure deals more with factor such as who they are around, their schedules, their position, and their position in climbing up in the ladder. A company can have an effective culture but an inefficient structure which could lead to incompatibility and failure. I believe that the culture within a company has to be compatible with the structure in which the company runs in. Culture starts from the managers and the company leaders and effective leadership with open communication and positive reinforcement can lead to a successful culture.
