A Study on Organizational Climate and Job Performance of Faculty Members in Business Schools in Tamil Nadu

Issue Abstract

Abstract
Organizational climate is the thoughts and feelings of employees towards their organization which has great influence on their working means and contributions and it affects the performance of the employees in any kind of organization. The faculty members with high quality, adoptability to changes, team work, high level of motivation, involvement with professional values and open to personal growth compose the most crucial resources of business schools. The results indicate that there is significant difference between socio-economic status of faculty members and organizational climate in business schools. The organizational climate dimensions of work environment, respect, innovation, motivation and reward are moderately and positively correlated with job performance of faculty members of business schools. To improve organizational climate in business schools, business schools must have adequate innovative plans for future development and methods of working should change very quickly to meet new conditions. The senior faculty members in the business schools should help junior faculty members to perform their job well and the business schools must improve the self image and provide opportunities for personal growth and development of their faculty members.
