Abstract: A method for measuring the culture of an organisation includes establishing (202) a plurality of categories relating to the culture of the organisation, said categories being grouped into a plurality of clusters, wherein each cluster includes a selected one or more of the categories which relate to a predetermined aspect of organisational culture. Information is provided (206) by a plurality of individuals associated with the organisation, regarding each of said individual's personal experience of the culture of the organisation in relation to each of the categories. The received information is processed (208) to determine, with regard to each category, a corresponding category grade representing an extent to which the experience of the individuals is either positive or negative. A chart is generated (210) which includes graphical representations of each one of the clusters, each cluster graphical representation including graphical representations of the category grades determined for the categories grouped within the corresponding cluster. The method enables feedback to be obtained regarding the organisational culture from a variety of different individuals associated with the organisation, and the grouping of cultural categories into clusters facilitates a more effective appreciation of the contribution made by those aspects to the overall culture of the organisation. The chart may enable rapid visual assimilation of the overall culture of the organisation, with each cluster representing a specific and carefully chosen aspect of organisation culture. The method is preferably implemented as an online system, wherein information may be gathered from individuals, and results presented, via a convenient web-based interface.
