a: Inertia ~
b: body in motion tending to stay in motion
What:
"culture can be defined as the sum of individuals' work habits within an organization. Culture is often invisible to the members within the group because it is "the way we do things around here." One implication of culture as a collection of habits and practices is that it has incredible inertia and momentum. Cultural inertia is like a body in motion tending to stay in motion in the same direction unless acted on by an external force."
