Culture Surveys

A culture survey is a powerful tool to better understand the shared values that underpin performance, as well as identify cultural areas for change. OPRA is the NZ distributor for the Denison Culture Survey; designed specifically to link culture to bottom-line performance. This tool differs from other surveys in that it:

• Provides the option to include your own questions, unique to your organisation;
• Allows you to gather qualitative as well as quantitative ratings;
• Will compare your organisational profile to over 1000+ organisations globally;
• Provides suggestions for change that are actionable, measurable, and link to real-world outcomes;
• Provides a measure of your organisation's progress towards achieving a high performance culture and optimum results.

The Denison Organisational Culture Survey has 60 items that measure specific aspects of an organisation's culture.  Results are presented in terms of four traits and twelve management practices identified by Dr. Denison as being predictive of organisational performance.

Applications

• Benchmark your organisation's culture to other cultures in higher and lower-performing organisations
• Administer the survey to various departments to examine organisational sub-cultures
• Measure an organisation's existing culture and predict its impact on performance
• Implement suggested action steps for tangible performance improvement
• Determine organisational development and training needs necessary for culture change
• Help manage the merger and acquisition process
