Laissez-faire Climate Conflict prevents accomplishment Adm doesn’t care who gets hurt Little concern for employee
relations No room for new ideas It’s who you know Unclear goals Little effort to constantly improve
Reward Climate Adm does the right thing Adm looks out for worker Concern for relationships Learning encouraged What you do–not who you
know Clear goals & expectations Constructive feedback Always looking for a better
way
Accuracy Accuracy is the extent
to which one believes that the information conveyed by other parties is correct
Openness Openness is the
extent to which one can speak clearly and directly without fear of repercussions or misunderstanding
