India has traditionally and largely had an unstructured working environment, with most of the organizations being family-owned businesses. The scenario has changed post liberalization and in this changed scenario, it would be interesting to know how organization climate has evolved in the Indian context. Since Organizational Climate is perceptual, different organizations with differing practices and procedures may have different climates. One of the problems with conceptualizing climate is the specification of appropriate climate dimensions. The present study seeks to identify the dimensions that constitute organizational climate in the Indian context.
