Book Organizational and Individual Characteristics  Organizational Climate  and Job Attitudes  A Multivariate Investigation of Responses at Individual and Group Levels of Analysis

Download or read book Organizational and Individual Characteristics Organizational Climate and Job Attitudes A Multivariate Investigation of Responses at Individual and Group Levels of Analysis written by Ralph Katerberg (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questionnaire data were gathered from 396 employees in 15 stores of a large retail merchandising organization. The questionnaire included demographic and organizational position items, an organizational climate measure and a job attitude instrument. The individual data were aggregated at the work group level to form group summary variables for 87 work groups. Canonical analyses were conducted to examine relationships between positional, demographic, climate, and attitudinal variables. These relationships were analyzed at both individual and group levels. Redundancy indices were used to summarize the relationships between the distinct variable sets. Climate was found to be slightly more predictable from positional variables while job attitudes were more predictable from demographic variables. Using demographic and positional variables in combination, climate was more predictable than were job attitudes. The same pattern of relationships was found at the group level of analyses. As expected, group level relationships were much stronger than those obtained at the individual level. Results are discussed in view of recent work on organizational climate suggested that climate represents a set of shared perceptions at some level above that of the individual.

Book The Perceived Structure of Organizations

Download or read book The Perceived Structure of Organizations written by Andres Inn and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multidimensional scaling of judgements of similarity among organizational positions revealed three perceived dimensions not necessarily consistent with objective dimensions of organizations. These were management-worker dichotomy, management hierarchy, and proximity to production. Emphases placed on these three dimensions were related to personal characteristics of judges as well as to their experiences in the organization. Locations of subjects' organizational positions in perceived space accounted for a small but significant portion of attitude variance. Differences between objective and perceived dimensions in accounting for relevant response variance are discussed. (Author).

Book Organizational Climate and Culture

Download or read book Organizational Climate and Culture written by Mark G. Ehrhart and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 421 pages. 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.
