OCAI (Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument)

The Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI) is a tool used to analyze and understand a company's culture by identifying its dominant values and behaviors. It asks employees to describe their organization across six key areas, such as how they work together, lead, or adapt to change. The results reveal whether the organization leans more toward a clan (collaborative), adhocracy (innovative), market (competitive), or hierarchy (structured) culture. This helps leaders recognize strengths and areas for improvement, guiding strategic decisions to shape a healthier and more effective work environment.
