The Corporate Leadership shapes culture through their actions, and the tolerance of others actions.
If you have no walls on your office before taking money, and move to a corner office with a close door after, you change the culture.
If you work flex hours and let the staff do so, then change, the culture changes.
If you hire guys who wear cut-offs and have unkempt beards, but later switch to only those who are straight laced you change the culture.
Amazon everyone used to have a Door with saw horse legs for a desk. That changed along the way. And the culture changed.
You can't keep the Garage culture, when you move to a skyscraper, but you can keep hints of it if the executive team works hard to make sure it happens.

Ironically, Amazon is large enough now that outfitting every employee with a door desk is in fact more expensive than ordering conventional desks in bulk. But they stick with the door desks because it's a good way of transmitting the frugal culture.
