About This Assessment
Questionnaire on Industry-Specific Types of Organizational Culture Test

Organizational Culture Industry Types Questionnaire Test

arrangeorganizational culture

It is designed to provide a brief, structured snapshot of perceived fit with common patterns of workplace norms and practices. The Organizational Culture Industry Types Questionnaire is used to elicit preferences related to work pace, risk tolerance, communication style, and reliance on rules or hierarchy in organizational settings.

The measure includes 5 items and typically requires about 1 minutes to complete. Responses are commonly summarized to indicate relative alignment with broad culture-type profiles; results are best interpreted as descriptive rather than diagnostic and should be integrated with role requirements, organizational context, and other assessment data. The Organizational Culture Industry Types Questionnaire is attributed to Edgar H. Schein and Geert Hofstede.
