The impact of feedback on the changing of organisational culture

The aim of this study was to determine the impact of feedback on organisational culture change. The empirical study was conducted among the employees of a financial institution in South Africa by means of a one-group Pre-test-Post-test design using the Corporate Culture Lite Questionnaire. The sample size for the pre-test and post-test measurement was 1584 and 927 employees respectively. A total of 203 feedback sessions were facilitated in five business units after the pre-test measurement according to the survey feedback approach. The data of the two measurements were compared using independent t-tests and p-values, to determine any areas of statistical and practical significant differences. The results indicate that in one of the five business units there was a practical significant difference between the two measurements of organisational culture on ten of the dimensions. This research therefore confirms that feedback has a limited impact on organisational culture change. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M. Comm. (Industrial Psychology)
