Measuring the organizational climate

Legitimate and necessary concern on the part of management

Abstract

The organizational climate is a fundamental component of the productivity and development of organizations
and therefore companies have lately been becoming interested in studying this subject. The goal is to diagnose
the organizational climate in the Land Property Management department of the company “Autopistas del
Sol S.A” in Cartagena. The research was a case study of a descriptive type which systematically dissects
and interpret the features of this organization’s climate issue. Deemed as study variables are: Participation,
leadership approach, satisfaction and communication.
Gathering of the information takes place with survey type tools structured by the Likert measurement table
and in-depth interview with management plus direct observation. It is evident that the internal environment
or organizational climate being managed within the land department of the company “Autopistas del Sol
S.A” is a congenial one that in turn, however, shows a series of symptoms of dissent from some participants
with regard to certain issues.
