Acculturation takes time, which HR and upper management is pyschopathically unwilling to provide. They're too busy moving fast and breaking shit.

Is complete acculturation practically possible?

It seems that all cultures have foundations that never go away.

How about partial acculturation? Has it successfully been done before? Has a company ever managed to completely change their inner workings without becoming something unrecognizable?

I'm not asking for Borg-style assimilation: I'm asking for basic management standards followed by all managers.

Upper management's pervasive refusal to pay anything more than token lip service to this standardization makes 99% of technology organizations a political hell to work in.
