What is Organizational Culture?
Organizational culture, also known as
company culture, is defined as the shared values,
attitudes and practices that characterize an
organization. It’s the personality of your company,
and it plays a large part in your employees’ overall
satisfaction.
Creating a winning organizational culture takes a
lot of time and effort — your culture must
accurately reflect your values and align with your
overall mission.

CLIMATE
Prepared by: MARCHEL I. ABELLERA
What is organizational
climate?
Organizational
climate refers to an employee’s
long-lasting perception of the working
environment and culture of the business they
work for.
Thisis reflected as a set of characteristics and
features perceived by employees.
These influence employees’ behavior at work
across various dimensions such as relationships,
autonomy, and organizational structure.
DIMENSIONS OF
ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE
There are a variety of approaches to defining the
dimensions of organizational climate in research.
According to Hassanpour et al (2019), these
include:
• Structural dimensions – Referring to
organizational structure
• Interactive dimensions – How members of an
organization interact with each other
• Perceptual dimensions – How individuals
perceive the climate within an organization
IMPACT OF ORGANIZATIONAL
CLIMATE
• It can operate as a constraint system
• It helps employees form a perception of
the organization
• It affects leader efficacy
• It influences employee happiness and
productivity
• It helps a business achieve its long-term
goals

HOW TO IMPROVE
ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE
1. Determine the state of the current
organizational climate
2. Translate company values and goals into
desired behaviors
3. Improve the working environment
4. Strengthen employee recognition
5. Advance your leadership
6. Promote autonomy
7. Focus on inclusion and belonging
In summary, while culture defines
the foundation of an organization’s
identity, climate is how employees
experience that identity day-to-day.
Both are critical to an organization's
success, as a positive climate, aligned
with a strong, clear culture, leads to
greater job satisfaction, productivity,
and overall success.
Thank you & God
bless!
