Abstract

Organizational climate is a topic of increasing interest in the area of organizational behaviour and management. It is generally defined as a psychological state strongly affected by organizational conditions, such as systems, structure and managerial behaviour. Organizational Climate is a perception of how things are in the organizational environment, which is composed of a variety of elements or dimensions. Managers are the most important assets of the organization as they have to interact with their subordinates, colleagues, top managements, customers and people at large. So, their major portion of time is utilized in working with different kinds of people in diverse climate and culture. The present research intends to understand the perception of Organizational climate among managers of private and public undertakings.
