u The Cultural Assessment provides information about core dimensions
of organizational culture, including:
Satisfaction With Work Itself, Satisfaction With Pay & Benefits,
Opportunities for Advancement, Satisfaction With Leadership &
Supervision, Motivation, Common Values, Performance Commitment
u In addition, based on the diagnosis, most clients choose to add
customized survey items that deal with unique issues facing their
organization. Examples include:
Customer Orientation, Teamwork, Reaction Towards Potential Sale,
Continuous Learning Environment, Trust, Work Autonomy/Job
Enrichment
u As a result of the diagnosis, various groups and subgroups of
employees are identified and relevant comparisons are determined.
This allows HRD STRATEGIES staff to design a coding system for
computer analysis, and allows for group comparisons on the various
dimensions. This organizational diagnosis helps ensure that all
subsequent steps run smoothly and that the company receives the
most useful information from the assessment.
 
   
 

u HRD STRATEGIES takes time to carefully explain to each
employee group the reasons for the survey and its special
features. To overcome any employee apprehension about how
the survey results will be used, it is emphasized that the survey
is anonymous.

u The survey can be administered to large groups of employees at

one time. Most groups complete the survey in 30 to 45 minutes.
The instrument consists of a core item survey, a supplement
containing organization-specific items, and open-ended
questions. The open-ended questions allow employees to write
about any areas they wish to expand upon with regard to what
the organization is doing right and what improvements are
needed.
 
  
£ 

u The survey will be designed so that the statistical data can be
presented simply and clearly. The data is summarized reflecting
the percentage of people responding in each of rating choices.
Statistical results are presented for each of the dimensions
described earlier and, if desired, for specific items as well. The
report compares the organization's current culture with previous
administrations of the survey.

u The responses to the open-ended questions are content-analyzed in

order to identify major themes and areas commented on. It is often
the case that unique themes are found that management is not
aware of and that are not brought out clearly in the questionnaire
part of the survey. These analyses are summarized and interpreted
in a written report.

  
 
£



u With an emphasis on practical and sound feedback to participants,
A series of meetings is held in which all Managers are shown the
results for the overall organization as well as their particular work
unit. These Managers are then encouraged to openly discuss the
survey data in order to gain a better understanding of the various
issues facing the organization, and decide on a plan to give feedback
to their employees. HRD STRATEGIES will provide a staff member
to assist the Managers with feedback to their respective
departments

u HRD STRATEGIES will provide a final written report

outlining the organizational strengths and a

initiative at both strategic and tactical levels.

the Black Belt role is critical to the success of a Six Sigma initiative.
The training investment is substantial for this pivotal role. Further,
Black Belts are the visible "face" of Six Sigma. They help shape the
organization's impression of Six Sigma, and, consequently, the
willingness of many to embrace the initiative. Therefore, you want
to pick Black Belts very carefully. HR professionals can help the Six

The work of Six Sigma is done mostly at the project team level by a
Black Belt leading a small team through the steps of the DMAIC
method. If the team itself does not function well or does not interact
effectively with others in the organization who ultimately have to
support and carry out the process changes, the project probably will
not be successful. Given the typical project's potential payback,
failure can be expensive.

motivation organizational structures, systems & procedures are
facilitators of these, and there is a need to focus greater attention on
these aspects by the industry.
