CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY
Organizational climate is comprised of mixture of norms, values, expectations, policies and
procedures that influence work motivation, commitment and ultimately, individual and work unit
performance. Positive climate encourages, while negative climates inhibits discretionary effort.
‘Organizational climate’ refers to the quality of working environment. If people feel that they are
valued and respected within the organization, they are more likely to contribute positively to the
achievements of the business outcomes. Creating a healthy organizational climate requires
attention to the factors which influence employee’s perceptions, including the quality of
leadership, the way in which decisions are made and whether the efforts of employees are
recognized. In fact “Climate may be thought of as the perceptions of the characteristics of an
organization”.
“Climate for an organization is somewhat like the personality for a person. Just
as every individual has a personality that makes each person unique, each organization has an
organizational climate that clearly distinguishes its personality from other organization. Every
organization is different and has a unique feeling and character beyond its structural
characteristics. Thus every organization deals with its member in a distinct way through its
policies on allocations of resources, communication pattern, reward and penalty, leadership and
decision making style, etc. The organizational policy and conviction with regard to all these and
a cluster of other related activities influence the feelings, attitudes and behavior of its members
and results in the creation of the unique organizational climate.
The content of organizational climate has varied widely and they include almost
all the important aspect of organizations such as structure, communication, leadership, Conflicts,
reward system, inter personal relationships organizational effectiveness, reasonability and so
forth. It has been pointed out that the contents of the climate constructed by various researches
overlap with many other major concepts in organizational behavior Glick, 1985. Such overlaps
seems to have promoted researchers to raise the question how the concept of climate is different
from other organizational variables, especially, structure and job satisfaction.

1.1 THEORETICAL BACKGROUND
Organizational climate is a relative enduring characteristic of an organization which
distinguishes it from other organization: (a) and embodies members collective perceptions about
their organization with respect to such dimensions as autonomy, trust, cohesiveness, support,
recognition, innovation and fairness: (b) is produced by members interaction; (c) serves as a
basis for interpreting the situation; (d) reflects the prevalent norms, values and attitudes of the
organizations culture; and (e) acts as a source of influence for shaping behavior. (Moran and
Volkwein, 1992, p.2)
Francese (1993) who examined the effect of climate in service responsiveness; Meudell
and Gadd (1994) who studied climate and culture in short life organizations; and Vallen (1993)
who was concerned about organizational climate and service staff burnout. Organizational
climate has much to offer in terms of its ability to explain the behavior of people in the
workplace. Ashforth (1985, p. 838) put forward the view that ‘climate has the potential to
facilitate a truly integrative science of organizational behavior,
The atmosphere that employees perceive is created in their organizations by practices,
procedures and rewards… Employees observe what happens to them (and around them) and then
draw conclusions about the organization’s priorities. They then sit their own priorities
accordingly. (Schneider, 1994, p. 18)
Schneider, Brief and Guzzo (1996, p.9) argue that ‘sustainable organizational change is
most assured when both the climate – what the organizations, members experience – and the
culture – what the organizations’ members believe the organization values – change’.
EARLY FORMULATIONS OF THE CLIMATE CONSTRUCT
The concept of climate can be traced back to the work of Lewin, Lippitt and White
(1939) and a work entitled ‘Patterns of aggressive behavior in experimentally created social
climates’ (Denison, 1996; Schneider, 1990). The Lewin et. Al. (1939) study investigated the
relationship between leadership style and climate, a factor that has remained central to the
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 2
Page 3
concept, Joyce and Slocum (1982) trace the concept back to the studies of Koffka (1935) on
‘behavior environment’; Lewin’s (1936) study on ‘life space’; and Murray’s (1938) work on
organizational climate. Lewin’s (1951) approach to climate was conceptualized by the
relationship between individuals, their social environment and how that is set in a framework.
Lewin expressed this in terms of simple equation:
B = f (P.E.)
In which,
B = Behavior,
E= Environment,
P = the person
It is clear from Lewin’s equation that the concept of climate takes a psychological
approach, focusing upon the individual and seeking to understand the cognitive processes and
behavior. Lewin’s conceptualization of the theory provides the underpinnings of many studies
and approaches to climate research.
THREE APPROACHES TO THE CLIMATE CONSTRUCT
James and Jones (1974) conducted a major review of the theory and research on
organizational climate ad identified climate in three separate ways that were not mutually
exclusive, (a) multiple measurement – organizational attribute approach, (b) perceptual
measurement – organizational attribute approach, and (c) the perceptual measurement –
individual attribute approach.
In the multiple measurement organizational approach James and Jones cite forehand and
Gilmer (1964) as defining organizational climate as a defining organizational climate as a “set of
characteristics that describe an organization and that (a) distinguish the organization from other
organizations (b) are relatively enduring over time, and (c) influence the behavior of people in
the organization.
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 3
Page 4
Schneider and Bartlett (1968) had proposed four organizational climate dimensions,
Individual autonomy: based on the factors of the individual responsibility, agent
Interdependence, rules orientation and opportunities for exercising individual initiative.
The degree of structure imposed upon the position: based on the factors of structure,
managerial structure and the closeness of supervision.
Reward orientation: based upon the factors of reward, general satisfaction, promotional-
achievement orientation, and being profit minded and sales oriented.
Consideration, warmth and support: based upon the factors of managerial support,
nurturing of subordinates and warmth and support.
In reviewing psychological climate as a set of perceptually based, psychological attributes Jones
and James (1979) noted that the process reflected the developments that had occurred in the
conceptualization of climate and the nature of its major influences. They propose that
psychological climate:
(a) refers to the individual’s cognitively based description of the situation;
(b) involves a psychological processing of specific perceptions into more abstract depictions
of the psychologically meaningful influences in the situation;
(c) tends to be closely related to situational characteristics that have relatively direct and
immediate ties to the individual experience; and
(d) is multidimensional, with a central core of dimensions that apply across a variety of
situations(through additional dimensions might be need to better describe particular
situations. (Jones and James, 1979, p.205)
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 4
Page 5
Schneider and Hall (1972) describe climate as a global perception held by individuals about
their own organizational environment.
Schneider and Snyder (1975) further clarified the approach by defining climate as a
summary perception which individuals form of (or about) an organization. For them it is a
global impression of the organization.
CHARACTERISTICS OF ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE
The nature of organizational climate will be clear from its following characteristics:
General perception:
Organizational climate is a general expression of what the organization is. It represents
the summary perception which people have about an organization.
Quality concept:
It is an abstract and intangible concept. It is difficult to explain the components of
organizational climate in quantifiable units.
Distinct identity:
It reflects how an organization is different from other organizations. It gives a distinct
identity to the organization.
Enduring Quality:
It is built up over a period of time. It represents a relatively enduring quality of the
internal environment that is experienced by the organizational members
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 5
Page 6
Multi –dimensional concept:
There are several dimensional of the concept of organizational climate such as individual
autonomy, authority structure, leadership style, pattern of communication, degree of conflict
and cooperation, etc.
DIMENSIONS OF ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE
It is very difficult to measure organizational climate because it is multi – dimensional
concept. The important components that collectively represent the climate of an organization are
as discussed below:
Member Orientation:
The dominant orientation of an organization is the main concern of its members, and this
is important determinant of climate. If the dominant orientation or concern is to adhere to
established rules and regulations, the climate will be characterized by control, on other hand
if the orientation is to produce excellence, the climate will be characterized by achievements.
Interpersonal Relationship:
An organization’s interpersonal-relations are reflected in the way informal groups are
formed, and operate to satisfy the needs of members. If informal relations supplement the
formal procedures, the organization will be benefited.
Individual Freedom:
If the individuals are given sufficient freedom or autonomy to work and exercise
authority, there will be efficiency in operation. Self –control will lighten the burden of the
higher level executives.
Degree of Control:
The control system may be either rigid or flexible. If the control is rigidly followed, there
will be impersonal or bureaucratic atmosphere in the organization. The scope for self –
regulation will be the minimum.
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 6
Page 7
Type of Structure:
It clarifies who is to direct whom and who is responsible to whom. It serve as the basis
for inter –personal relations between superiors and subordinates. If the authority is
centralized as the top level, the scope for participation in decision making by the
subordinates will be low. Where authority is delegated to the subordinate, there will be an
atmosphere of participative decision making.
Management Orientation (Style):
The dominant style of manager and supervisor may be task oriented or relation oriented.
If the task orientation is predominant, the leadership style will be autocratic. The
organization climate will be considerate and supportive if the managers are relation oriented
while dealing with works. The needs and aspirations of the workers will be given due
importance. This will produce team sprite in the organization.
Reward System:
The system of rewards and punishments is an important component of organizational
climate. When the reward are based on merit and productivity. There will be an atmosphere
of competition among employees for high performance. They will put more and more hard
work to develop themselves and to earn higher rewards such as increments and promotion.
Communication:
Communication is concerned with the flow of information; its direction (top- down,
bottom-up, horizontal).for instance, if organization communication is based on top-down
formal mode, the subordinates will not be able to express themselves. They may feel
frustration as management does not entertain their ideas, suggestion and reaction.
Conflict Management:
Differences among people and group in organization are not uncommon. If they are
managed effectively, there will be an atmosphere of cooperation in the organization. If they
are suppressed or not handled properly, people will be unhappy and there will be an
atmosphere of distrust and non-cooperation.
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 7
Page 8
Degree of Trust:
The degree of trust or lacks of trust among various members in the organization affect the
climate. If there is mutual trust between different individuals, group, and also between
management and workers, there will be peace in the organization. The members will
cooperate with each other for attainment of organization objective.
Risk Taking:
How members respond to risk and whose help I sought in situation involving risk are
important in any organization. If individuals feel free to try new idea without any fear, they
will not hesitate in taking risk. Such an atmosphere will be conducive to innovative idea.
FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE
According to Lawrence James and Allan Jones have classified the factors that
influence organizational climate into five major components:
Organizational context - mission, goals and objective, function, etc.
Organization structure - size, degree of centralization and operating procedure.
Leadership process - leadership styles, communication, decision making and
related processes.
Physical environment – employee safety, environment stresses and physical space
characteristics.
Organizational values and norms – conformity, loyalty, impersonality and
reciprocity.

CHAPTER II
2.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE
MANAGEMENT CONSULTING
Management consulting indicates to both the industry of, and the practice of, helping
organizations improve their performance, primarily through the analysis of existing business
problems and development of plans for improvement.
Organizations hire the services of management consultants for a number of reasons,
including gaining external (and presumably objective) advice, access to the consultants'
specialized expertise, or simply as extra temporary help during a one-time project, where the
hiring of more permanent employees is not required.
Because of their exposure to and relationships with numerous organizations, consulting
firms are also said to be aware of industry "best practices", although the transferability of such
practices from one organization to another is the subject of ridicule
Consultancies may also provide organizational change management assistance,
development of coaching skills, technology implementation, strategy development, or
operational improvement services. Management consultants generally bring their own,
proprietary methodologies or frameworks to guide the identification of problems, and to serve as
the basis for recommendations for more effective or efficient ways of performing business tasks.
HISTORY
Management consulting grew with the rise of management as a unique field of study. The
first management consulting firm was Arthur D. Little, founded in 1886 by the MIT professor of
the same name. Though Arthur D. Little later became a general management consultancy, it
originally specialized in technical research. Booz & Company was founded by Edwin G. Booz, a
graduate of the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, in 1914 as a
management consultancy and the first to serve both industry and government clients.
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 10
Page 11
After World War II, a number of new management consulting firms formed, most notably
Boston Consulting Group, founded in 1963, which brought a rigorous analytical approach to the
study of management and strategy. Work done at Boston Consulting Group, McKinsey, Booz &
Company, and the Harvard Business School during the 1960s and 70s developed the tools and
approaches that would define the new field of strategic management, setting the groundwork for
many consulting firms to follow. In 1983, Harvard Business School's influence on the industry
continued with the founding of Monitor Group by six professors.
One of the reasons why management consulting grew first in the USA is because of deep cultural
factors: it was accepted there, (contrary to say, Europe), that management and boards alike might
not be competent in all circumstances; therefore, buying external competency was seen as a
normal way to solve a business problem. This is referred to as a "contractual" relation to
management. By contrast, in Europe, management is connected with emotional and cultural
dimensions, where the manager is bound to be competent at all times. This is referred to as the
"pater families" pattern .Therefore seeking (and paying for) external advice was seen as
inappropriate .However, it is sometimes argued that in those days the average level of education
of the executives was significantly lower in the USA than in Europe, where managers were
Grandes Ecoles graduates (France) or "Doktor" (Germany), though this is very difficult to
quantify given the vastly differing management structures in American and European businesses.
It was only after World War II, in the wake of the development of the international trade led by
the USA, that management consulting emerged in Europe. The current trend in the market is a
clear segmentation of management consulting firms.
Another branch of management consulting is Human Resource consulting. Such firms provide
advice to their clients regarding the financial and retirement security, health, productivity, and
employment relationships of their global workforce
APPROACHES
In general, various approaches to consulting can be thought of as lying somewhere along a
continuum, with an 'expert' or prescriptive approach at one end, and a facilitative approach at the
other. In the expert approach, the consultant takes the role of expert, and provides expert advice
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 11
Page 12
or assistance to the client, with, compared to the facilitative approach, less input from, and less
collaboration with, the client(s). With a facilitative approach, the consultant focuses less on
specific or technical expert knowledge, and more on the process of consultation itself. Because
of this focus on process, a facilitative approach is also often referred to as 'process consulting,'
with Edgar Schein being considered the most well-known practitioner. The consulting firms
listed above are closer toward the expert approach of this continuum.
Many consulting firms are organized in a matrix structure, where one 'axis' describes a business
function or type of consulting: for example, strategy, operations, technology, executive
leadership, process improvement, talent management, sales, etc. The second axis is an industry
focus: for example, oil and gas, retail, automotive. Together, these form a matrix, with
consultants occupying one or more 'cells' in the matrix. For example, one consultant may
specialize in operations for the retail industry, and another may focus on process improvement in
the downstream oil and gas industry.
SPECIALIZATIONS
Management consulting refers generally to the provision of business consulting services, but
there are numerous specializations, such as information technology consulting, human resource
consulting, and others, many of which overlap, and most of which are offered by the large
diversified consultancies listed below. So-called "boutique" consultancies, however, are smaller
organizations specializing in one or a few of such specializations.
CURRENT STATE OF THE INDUSTRY
Management consulting has grown quickly, with growth rates of the industry exceeding 20% in
the 1980s and 1990s. As a business service, consulting remains highly cyclical and linked to
overall economic conditions. The consulting industry shrank during the 2001-2003 period, but
has been experiencing slowly increasing growth since. In 2007, total global revenues for
management consulting are expected to exceed the $300 billion mark.
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 12
Page 13
Currently, there are four main types of consulting firms:
1. Large, diversified organizations that offer a range of services, including information
technology consulting, in addition to a strategy consulting practice (e.g. Accenture,
ABeam Consulting, Capgemini, Deloitte, IBM). Some very large IT service providers
have moved into consultancy as well and are also developing strategy practices (e.g.
Wipro, Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys)
2. Medium-sized information technology consultancies that blend boutique style with some
of the same services and technologies bigger players offer their clients (e.g. IDS Scheer,
arinso).
3. Large management and strategic consulting specialists that offer primarily strategy
consulting but are not specialized in any specific industry (e.g. Bain & Company, Booz &
Company,McKinsey & Company, The Boston Consulting Group, Oliver Wyman, A.T.
Kearney, OC&C Strategy Consultants).
4. Boutique firms, often quite small, which have focused areas of consulting expertise in
specific industries, functional areas or technologies (e.g. Heidrick & Struggles, Towers
Perrin, the Avascent Group, Newton Industrial Consultants, Kaiser Associates) . Most of
the boutiques were founded by famous business theorists. Small firms with less than 50
employees are often referred to as niche consultancies (e.g. Agility Works, iProCon
HCM). If they have a unique concept and market it successfully, they often grow out of
this segment very fast or are bought by larger players interested in their knowhow.
A fifth type that is emerging is the sourcing advisory firm, that advise buyers on sourcing
choices related to insourcing, outsourcing, vendor selection, and contract negotiations. The top
10 sourcing advisors (as ranked by the Black Book of Outsourcing) were TPI, Gartner, Hackett
Group, Everest Group, PwC, Avasant, PA Consulting, and EquaTerra. Although a fast growing
sector, the largest sourcing advisory practices would likely be classified as boutiques when
considering the management consulting industry as a whole - with one of the largest players,
TPI, for example, citing 2006 revenues of less than US$150M during its acquisition by ISG.
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 13
Page 14
TRENDS
Management consulting is becoming more prevalent in non-business related fields as
well. As the need for professional and specialized advice grows, other industries such as
government, quasi-government and not-for-profit agencies are turning to the same managerial
principles that have helped the private sector for years.
One important and recent change in the industry has been the spin-off or separation of the
consulting and the accounting units of the large diversified firms. For these firms, which began
business as accounting firms, management consulting was a new extension to their business. But
after a number of highly publicized scandals over accounting practices, such as the Enron
scandal, accountancies began divestiture of their management consulting units, to more easily
comply with the tighter regulatory scrutiny that followed.
RISE OF INTERNAL CORPORATE CONSULTING GROUPS
Added to these approaches are corporations that set up their own internal consulting groups,
hiring internal management consultants either from within the corporation or from external firms
employees. Many corporations have internal groups of as many as 25 to 30 full-time consultants.
Internal consulting groups are often formed around a number of practice areas, commonly
including: organizational development, process management, information technology, design
services, training, and development.
HUMAN RESOURCE CONSULTING
Human resource consulting that has emerged from management consulting, as clients'
needs have become more complex and specialized, widening the gap between HR needs and
work force capabilities, and thus accentuating the ability of HR management consulting firms to
fill this gap. While the multi-faceted nature of business sometimes causes overlap in consulting
industries (i.e., with regards to human resources, general management, and information
technology), the following are core fields around which most HR consultancies are based:
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 14
Page 15
Human Capital, including remuneration (also called total rewards), employee rewards
and incentive programs, and talent acquisition and management
Health & Benefits; i.e., orchestrating optimal employee health plans with the carriers
themselves
Mergers & Acquisitions, examining fit across culture, job-type, transaction costs, etc.
Communication, including surveying employee attitudes, satisfaction, engagement, and
other employee behaviors
Retirement
Outsourcing
Services may also include legal counseling, global initiatives, investments consulting, and the
implementation of HR technologies to facilitate human capital management. The HR consulting
industry also employs more actuaries than any other in order to assist in their services.
ADVANTAGES
There are several potential benefits of internal consultants to those who employ them:
If properly managed and empowered, internal consulting groups evaluate engagement on
projects in light of the corporation's strategic and tactical objectives.
Often, the internal consultant requires less ramp up time on a project due to familiarity
with the corporation, and is able to guide a project through to implementation—-a step
that would be too costly if an external consultant were used.
Internal relationship provides opportunities to keep certain corporate information private.
It is likely that the time and materials cost of internal consultants is significantly less than
external consultants operating in the same capacity.
Note: Corporations need to be conscious of and consistent with how internal consultant costs are
accounted for on both a project and organizational level to evaluate cost effectiveness.
Internal consultants are often uniquely suited to
1. Lead external consulting project teams, or
A Study on Organization Climate in Ma Foi 15
Page 16
2. Act as organizational subject matter experts ‘embedded’ with external consulting teams
under the direction of organizational management.
A group of internal consultants can closely monitor and work with external consulting firm. This
would ensure better delivery, quality, and overall operating relationship.
External firms providing consulting services have a dichotomy in priority. The health of the
external firm is in aggregate more important that the health of the client organization. (client
objectives are ultimately secondary to that of the strategic goals of the external firm)
Again assuming proper management, internal consulting groups are less likely have a dichotomy
in priority. The health of the client organization is in aggregate more important that the health of
the internal consulting group. (Put the company objectives first)
DISADVANTAGES
The internal consultant may not bring the objectivity to the consulting relationship that an
external firm can.
An internal consultant also may not bring to the table best practices from other
corporations. A way to mitigate this issue is to recruit experience into the group and/or
proactively provide diverse training to internal consultants.
Where the consulting industry is strong and consulting compensation high, it can be
difficult to recruit candidates.
It is often difficult to accurately measure the true costs and benefits of an internal
consulting group.
When financial times get tough, internal consulting groups that have not effectively
demonstrated economic value (costs vs. benefits) are likely to face size reductions or
reassignment.

the study.
ONE WAY ANOVA TEST
PERCENTAGE ANALYSIS:
Percentage refers to a special kind of ratio. Percentage is used in making
comparison about two or more series of data. Percentage as also used to describe relationship. It
is also used to compare the relative term’s dx of two or more series of data.
Formula:
ANOVA:
The analysis of variance frequently referred to by the contraction ANOVA is a
statistical technique specially designed to test whether the means of more than two quantitative
populations are equal.
The analysis of variance technique developed by R.A. Fisher in 1920’s diversified practical
problems. Basically, it consists of classifying and cross classifying statistical results and testing
whether the means of a specified classification differ significantly. In this way it is determined
whether the given classification is important in affecting the results
