Research Group on Climate, Culture, Leadership, and Measurement in Organizations - CLIMO

Reference of the Group:

GIUV2016-276

 
Description of research activity:
The group's research activity is developed through the following work lines: To identify and describe the processes of formation of the climate and culture of the organisations. To determine the influence that leadership has on the processes of formation of the organisational climate and culture, and on its average levels and variability. To determine the influence of the organisational climate and culture, and leadership, on key processes in the functioning of work units (e.g., conflict, communication, reflexivity). To estimate the indirect effects of climate, culture and leadership on the results of the work units (e.g., performance, quality of service) and the quality of working life of its members (e.g., psychological well-being, job satisfaction), through the processes indicated above. To determine the influence that the composition of work teams based on demographic variables (e.g., gender, education, seniority) has on the processes and results of the teams. To develop and validate measurement instruments (e.g., tests, questionnaires, scales) to measure the variables listed above. To determine the invariance of the psychometric properties of these measures through...The group's research activity is developed through the following work lines: To identify and describe the processes of formation of the climate and culture of the organisations.

Scientific-technical goals:
  • Elaborar instrumentos de medida fiables y validos de las variables señaladas en el apartado anterior, cuyas propiedades psicometricas sean suficientemente invariantes a traves de grupos demograficos, idiomas, y paises y contextos culturales.
  • Ofrecer un modelo explicativo integrador acerca de los factores que determinan los procesos de emergencia y desarrollo del clima y la cultura en las organizaciones.
  • Identificar los mecanismos clave a traves de los que el clima y la cultura organizacional influyen sobre los resultados de las unidades de trabajo y la calidad de vida laboral de sus miembros.
  • Elaborar un modelo explicativo acerca de la influencia que la composicion de los equipos de trabajo tiene sobre su funcionamiento y resultados.
 
Research lines:
  • Organisational climate and culture.It investigates the processes of formation of the climate and culture of the organisations, as well as the effects of the climate and culture on the functioning, results, and quality of working life of the organisations and their units.
  • Leadership in organisations.It investigates the background and consequences of leadership in organisations and their units.
