DOWNLOAD EBOOKThere is little doubt that culture strongly affects the functioning of any organisation. But there is still little awareness among managers about how to uncover, evaluate and improve that culture - so that it works to reinforce the corporate strategy. The most effective way to identify the critical values and assumptions shared in a company is to conduct a culture audit. But, however you use the audit, it will give fascinating insights into the way your company works. Every organization should undertake it The Corporate Culture Audit is a 5-step approach to evaluating your organisational culture - then harnessing that culture to win competitive advantage The company culture - 'the way we do things round here' - has a decisive impact on competitiveness and profitability. Changing and harnessing the company culture is also the vital first-step in any improvement programme. But how do you assess objectively something as intangible as company culture? This audit outlines a 5-Step Culture Assessment and explains: * the 4 elements of a company culture (purpose; strategic competence; trust/equity; adaptability) * the 'hard' and 'soft' data you can gather * how to collect, frame and analyse that data * how to eliminate bias without using external consultants * how to present and use your audit findings.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCorporate Assessment, first published in 1993, looks at four types of company audit and provides a pragmatic, readable guide for managers. The authors show how assessment of a company in terms of its culture, climate, communications and customers can enhance management vision and lead to recommendations designed to improve employee satisfaction, motivation, loyalty and performance. Insight is provided into the kinds of measurement tools and assessment techniques that are available, and the authors offer recommendations for the use of these instruments, and how best to utilize the information they can produce. This book will not only be of interest to managers who need to assess their companies, but to students of business, organizational psychology, and human resource management.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis report by Prof. Dr. Sonja Sackmann, University Bw, Munich, provides an overview of state-of-the-art knowledge with regard to the link between corporate culture and performance as well as approaches that have been used to assess and measure culture in organizations. It discusses different understandings of culture and how they lead to different ways of assessing it. Current methods of culture assessment are compared. The comparison is arranged according to the respective focus on the cultural layer of analyses (e.g., norms, values, beliefs, and assumptions), the origin of dimensions and the purpose of assessment. Most of these approaches are single-method instruments. Along with multiplemethod approaches, they are described and discussed individually, followed by a short assessment of their strengths and weaknesses. In addition, the report provides a more general evaluation of issues related to the assessment of culture and its link to performance, as well as the most promising approaches. These considerations lead to recommendations for the assessment of corporate culture with links to performance.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn an increasingly competitive and volatile business world, companies need to be able to respond effectively to changing circumstances. Mergers and takeovers, evolution from public to private enterprise, and the introduction of new styles of management are all examples of organizational changes which can have a profound influence on the operations of a company and more especially upon the attitudes, motivation and commitment of its workforce. More and more, management teams in companies need to know how to handle change and in particular how to assess its impact on the satisfaction and performance of employees. Corporate Assessment looks at four types of company audit and provides a pragmatic, readable guide for managers. The authors show how assessment of a company in terms of culture, climate, communications, and customers can enhance management vision and lead to recommendations designed to improve employee satisfaction, motivation, loyalty and performance. They provide insight into the kinds of measurement tools and assessment techniques that are available and give recommendations for the use of these instruments and for how best to utilize the information they can produce.
