Explanation:

Organizational culture is what we call the mix of core values and actions that make up an organization, it's mostly and widely used for companies but it also applies to schools, governments, non-profits, and any group of people working together towards a goal.

The mission statement is basically what the organization wants to achieve, or its dreamed goal.

Stories and language are the speech that the organization communicates to the audience or anyone interacting with it.

The physical layouts are the colors and buildings, apps, or any way of direct interaction that any person could have with the organization.

Rules and policies are what dictate the behavior of all the employees and people related to the organization.

And rituals are the activities that the organization does in order to reinforce the values and policies they try to live day by day, doing your own painting is one example of these rituals.
