Team members may have disengaged from their jobs and the organization. The results can include staff turnover, absenteeism, dissatisfaction and low productivity. Your answers indicate that you find yourself in an Energizing climate in which team members routinely put extra effort into doing their jobs well. You and your colleagues are likely to find work engaging and satisfying. Your answers indicate that you find yourself in a Neutral climate that places high demands on your personal motives and values. If you remain engaged in your work it will be despite the climate you experience, and often with little support from your manager or colleagues. But is this the same across the whole of your organization? What kind of climates will others in your organization be experiencing? And why does it matter? Climate matters because it affects performance. Our research shows that climate accounts for up to 30 per cent of the difference in performance between average and high performing teams. In a positive climate, team members are focused and work to the best of their ability. They feel part of the success or failure of their team. In a negative climate, team members lack focus and lose this feeling of engagement, which inhibits their effort and performance. Because of this, many organizations choose to measure climate annually to maintain high performance.

One of the quickest ways to improve team and individual performance is to improve the climate – to give people: the flexibility to act the responsibility they need to take charge of their work high but attainable standards of excellence fair and reasonable rewards for good performance clarity about goals and roles team commitment to taking action Who makes it happen? Leaders make the difference. Of all the things that influence climate, leaders have the biggest impact. Managers who can tailor their behavior - their leadership styles - to meet the needs of the situation and their team mambers can create energizing climates. And by seeking feedback from their team members on their leadership styles, managers can identify what they can do to maintain just the right conditions for team performance.
