实物特征:An analysis is conducted using multivariate techniques to determine the main intervention variables for an organizational climate study performed in 2013 in a municipality in Costa Rica. The initial study included an overview of the perception of variables influencing the organizational climate. Eight variables were analyzed and grouped in 3 dimensions, and recommendations were included for each of them. According to the results of the multivariate technique analysis, in order to improve the municipality’s climate, actions and resources in the “Structure, Procedures and Functions” and “Motivation and Commitment” dimensions should be prioritized and strengthened, specifically in the “Communication” and “Commitment and identity” variables. In addition, it should be considered that leadership positions give greater value to the “Commitment” variable than other positions, and personnel working in the institution for over five years give greater value to the “challenge and reward” variable. It was concluded that the use of multivariate techniques show specific trends that provide the initial study with input to define priorities. In this study the results of the multivariate analysis indicated that in order to improve organizational climate, the municipality should first focus on planning strategies for organizational improvement. This is fundamental for the definition and budgetary guidance and implementation of the actions proposed in the primary study.
