Kiall -
I too am seeking measurements for organizational effectiveness. So far I
have found the Denison Surveys. The former works across an entire
organization, the latter is specifically geare toward the individual, in
the manner of a 360 Feedback measurement. They measure Involvement,
Adaptability, Consistency, and Mission, each category further broken down
into 3 sub-categories. These are then matrixed against an Internal v.
External focus on one axis, and Flexible v. Stable on another axis. They
are fairly comprehensive tools. Find them at http://www.denisonculture.com
I'd add an inquiry to others: Are there tools/surveys for measuring an
organization's tendency toward an LO? I'm interested in pre- and
post-change effort measurement.
Cheers,
Richard Morse
