Summary

The paper introduces a method for analyzing organizational culture using NLP to interpret the language employees use in chats, meetings, and documents. By examining tone, sentiment, and structure, organizations can detect early indicators of cultural issues before they appear in traditional surveys or HR metrics. These linguistic patterns are categorized into six measurable dimensions that capture how people experience work in real time.

Together, NLP and behavioral science offer a data-informed approach that makes culture visible, trackable, and actionable.
