Abstract: | This article deals with the development and validation of a multidimensional measure of organizational change, the Organizational Climate Measure (OCM). 6869 employees across 55 manufacturing organizations participated in the questionnaire. Concurrent validity was measured by correlating employee's ratings with managers' and interviewers' descriptions of managerial practices and organizational characteristics. Predictive validity was obtained by using measures of innovation and productivity. This measure provides researchers a relatively comprehensive and flexible approach to the evaluation of organizational members' experience and promises applied and theoretical benefits. |
