what
motivates us
There are two sides to every climate
Climate affects organizational performance by influencing employee
motivation. In most jobs, especially complex ones, there is a gulf
between what employees need do to get by and what they can do if
they perform at their full potential. A positive climate will encourage
The Organizational Climate Survey (OCS) is a 47 item questionnaire completed
online by managers and their teams. The feedback is compiled into a report with
two profiles:
the climate the target leader experiences within their own leadership team
the climate the target leader creates for their own team
this discretionary effort and commitment.
The feedback shows how both the leader and their team feel climate is now and
how they would ideally like things to be, and its the gap between these two
scores that matters. This is powerful feedback to receive and must be delivered
by a specially accredited Hay Group consultant.
The report also includes background information on climate, an explanation of
data validity and details on how to interpret and respond to feedback.
The OCS can be used as a standalone instrument, but is most effective when
used with the Inventory of Leadership Styles (ILS). The ILS helps leaders identify
the leadership behaviors they use; the OCS allows them to see the impact these
behaviors are having on their team.
Improve your business without making
heavy weather of it
The Organizational Climate Survey is the closest thing a business can get
to a Profit and Loss statement of how well a company uses its people.
Because the survey is normed against tens of thousands of managers
around the world, across industries and across job functions and levels,
you can be sure the feedback will give you a really accurate picture of
your organizations current climate.
The Organizational Climate Survey:
helps leaders understand the connection between their actions and
the climate they create for their employees
helps leaders understand the climate they themselves experience on
a daily basis
can be used as part of an executive coaching intervention or any
one-to-one coaching and development process
is typically employed as a Leadership Development tool either for
individual leaders or across teams and work units
It is really valuable for leaders to be able to quantify the climate they
experience and create. But measuring is only the first step. Wed love you

climate.
