Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI)

The Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI) is a tool used to evaluate and understand the culture of an organization. Developed by researchers Kim Cameron and Robert Quinn, it assesses four key cultural types: Clan (collaborative), Adhocracy (innovative), Market (competitive), and Hierarchy (structured). By identifying the current and preferred cultures within an organization, OCAI helps leaders understand their strengths and areas for improvement, guiding them in creating a healthier work environment that aligns with their goals and values. This ultimately enhances overall performance and employee satisfaction.
