Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fields of organizational climate and organizational culture have co-existed for several decades with very little integration between the two. In Organizational Climate and Culture: An Introduction to Theory, Research, and Practice, Mark G. Ehrhart, Benjamin Schneider, and William H. Macey break down the barriers between these fields to encourage a broader understanding of how an organization’s environment affects its functioning and performance. Building on in-depth reviews of the development of both the organizational climate and organizational culture literatures, the authors identify the key issues that researchers in each field could learn from the other and provide recommendations for the integration of the two. They also identify how practitioners can utilize the key concepts in the two literatures when conducting organizational cultural inquiries and leading change efforts. The end product is an in-depth discussion of organizational climate and culture unlike anything that has come before that provides unique insights for a broad audience of academics, practitioners, and students.

Book Development and Validation of an Instrument to Assess the Organizational Climate in Community Colleges

Download or read book Development and Validation of an Instrument to Assess the Organizational Climate in Community Colleges written by Sharon Martin and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to develop a valid and reliable instrument to measure the organizational climate of the community college as perceived by community college administrators, faculty, and classified staff. There were three phases in this study. The first was to develop a pool of test items based on the review of related literature. This phase consisted of generating, validating, and revising test items for the pilot test. The second phase of the study, the pilot test, consisted of assessing an entire community college staff in Washington State. All levels and areas of the college were represented in the test. The sample consisted of 11 administrators, 40 full-time faculty members, and 40 full-time classified staff members. An interview of a random sample of the group obtained a second view of the questionnaire. The items were subjected to an item analysis for internal consistency, and 42 of the 83 items were selected for the field test instrument. The field test was the final phase. Three community colleges in Washington State were utilized. The population consisted of 238 respondents from all levels and areas of the colleges. The response rate was 35 per cent. The results were analyzed to determine reliability of the instrument and to reduce the instrument length if possible. Consistency in responses was expected in three major areas: units of the college, positions within the college, and between colleges themselves. Differences were expected among the seven concepts. Differences in concept means were found only among the seven concepts. The instrument is reliable and valid. Individuals interviewed all expressed interest in establishing positive, productive working climates. All four community college presidents interviewed expressed a desire to assess the climate of their organizations. There are not the financial resources to accomplish lengthy assessment projects; therefore, the 35-item instrument that resulted from this study could be administered to a community college to assess the organizational climate as the first step in establishing a productive organization.

Book The Oxford Handbook of Organizational Climate and Culture

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Organizational Climate and Culture written by Benjamin Schneider and published by Oxford Library of Psychology. This book was released on 2014 with total page 753 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Organizational Climate and Culture presents the breadth of topics from Industrial and Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior through the lenses of organizational climate and culture. The Handbook reveals in great detail how in both research and practice climate and culture reciprocally influence each other. The details reveal the many practices that organizations use to acquire, develop, manage, motivate, lead, and treat employees both at home and in the multinational settings that characterize contemporary organizations. Chapter authors are both expert in their fields of research and also represent current climate and culture practice in five national and international companies (3M, McDonald's, the Mayo Clinic, PepsiCo and Tata). In addition, new approaches to the collection and analysis of climate and culture data are presented as well as new thinking about organizational change from an integrated climate and culture paradigm. No other compendium integrates climate and culture thinking like this Handbook does and no other compendium presents both an up-to-date review of the theory and research on the many facets of climate and culture as well as contemporary practice. The Handbook takes a climate and culture vantage point on micro approaches to human issues at work (recruitment and hiring, training and performance management, motivation and fairness) as well as organizational processes (teams, leadership, careers, communication), and it also explicates the fact that these are lodged within firms that function in larger national and international contexts.
