This study was designed to investigate the influence of management development training on managerial effectiveness as measured by perceived organizational climate. The study's sample consisted of 96 engineering managers from Honeywell Inc. and 288 of their engineering subordinates; three subordinates associated with each manager. The dependent variable was the McBer Organizational Climate Survey Questionnaire, an 88 item survey of perceived actual and idealized organizational climate. The intervening variable was the Honeywell Engineering Management School, a nine day management development program aimed at developing 'people oriented' management skills. The study also examined the sample group of managers by age, years of management experience, educational background, and self-assessed measures of interpersonal, intrapersonal, and career management skills. The Personal Skills Map was employed to measure these skills. The study's first question investigated the influence of the management development program on subordinate perceptions of organizational climate. 'Organization' was defined as those work environments supervised by the managers participating in this study. The results indicate that the management development program had no influence on perceptions of organizational climate. The study's second question investigated the influence of individual manager personal and demographic characteristics, both alone, and in conjunction with the management development program, on perceptions of organizational climate. The results indicate that individual manager personal and demographic characteristics exert no influence, either alone or in conjunction with the management development program, on organizational climate. Finally, a comparison between this study's sample groups and respective normative populations was undertaken. This analysis revealed that the engineering managers were above the normative group with regard to career management skills, below with regard to interpersonal skills, and more resistant to personal change. Also, relative to a normative population, the organizational climates were perceived to be more demanding with regard to organizational policies, practices, and procedures.Subjects--Topical Terms:
