Organizational Culture Inventory (OCI®)
The most widely used and thoroughly researched tool for measuring organizational culture. Developed by Drs. Robert A. Cooke and J. Clayton Lafferty, it measures the culture attributes most closely tied to how people behave and perform.
OCI® — current culture
Measures the behaviors members believe are expected of them to fit in today. Results are plotted on the Human Synergistics Circumplex across Constructive, Passive/Defensive and Aggressive/Defensive norms.
OCI-Ideal — ideal culture
Measures the behaviors leaders and members believe would maximize performance and long-term effectiveness, revealing the ideal culture built on shared values.
