What is organizational climate? How do authorities      define climate? Do people enjoy working here? If so, why? If not, why not?      Are our motivation, evaluation and reward system perceived as fair and      equitable? What effect do such measures have on climate? Do we do climate      surveys? What do they indicate as key concerns? Should we measure climate?      How? NR 504 Week 2 Discussion Leadership Whirlwind Recent

  • What are organizational ethics? How do authorities      define ethics? How does my organization enforce ethics? Do we have fair      employment practices? Are we provided clear ethical guidelines? Do we      receive ethics training? How do we measure compliance? Do our leaders      shape ethical decision making or not? Do we ask or imply certain marginal      practices are okay? Any past scandals? How were they dealt with? What      steps have been or need to be taken to eliminate recurrences
