- Abstract
There is a tremendous history of published research where the Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI) has been used in various settings and findings identifying current and preferred cultural dimensions. Little research actually shows where the culture was changed in those researched environments. This study addresses the implementation of OCAI instrument on employees within an organization and the effects on the culture change as an outcome from the use of the OCAI. It also addresses the actions taken by a new leader of an organization. The OCAI was used by the new leader to gain a deeper understanding of the organizations' current perceived culture and was pivotal in identifying the culture gap in moving toward a preferred culture over an 18 month period. This is a longitudinal study of this organizational development process. Findings indicate that the OCAI was effective at identifying what culture dimensions needed to change.
