ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE - DIFFERING CONCEPTS AND MEASUREMENTS

摘要

Organizations today are facing major challenges in terms of intense competition, workforce diversity, cross -cultural interactions, employee retention, innovation and productivity, changing consumer preferences and dynamic government polices. The need of the hour is creating teams and fostering high level of competencies among them while maintaining high spirit of achievement. In view of this, the study of organizational climate as a causal factor of effectiveness has gained prominence. However, there are many problems in conceptualizing, measuring and improving organizational climate. In this paper, an attempt is made to highlight them for the benefit of researchers and practitioners.
