Activity: Which corporate culture do you prefer?

The source of this scale is: © Steven L. McShane

This self-assessment is designed to help you to identify a corporate culture that fits most closely with your personal values and assumptions. Read each pair of statements and choose the statement that describes the organization you would prefer to work in. You might like both statements, or you might not like either statement. Still, you can identify which of the two statements is closer to your personal preferences.

I would prefer to work in an organization:
 Where employees work well together in teams.
 That produces highly respected products or services.
 Where top management maintains a sense of order in the workplace.
 Where the organization listens to customers and responds quickly to their needs.
 Where employees are treated fairly.
 Where employees continuously search for ways to work more efficiently.
 Where employees adapt quickly to new work requirements.
 Where corporate leaders work hard to keep employees happy.
 Where senior executives receive special benefits not available to other employees.
 Where employees are proud when the organization achieves its performance goals.
 Where employees who perform the best get paid the most.
 Where senior executives are respected.
 Where everyone gets their jobs done like clockwork.
 That is on top of new innovations in the industry.
 Where employees receive assistance to overcome any personal problems.
 Where employees abide by company rules.
 That is always experimenting with new ideas in the marketplace.
 That expects everyone to put in 110 percent for peak performance.
 That quickly benefits from market opportunities.
 Where employees are always kept informed of what's happening in the organization.
 That can quickly respond to competitive threats.
 Where most decisions are made by the top executives.
 Where management keeps everything under control
 Where employees care for each other.
