Early Research
• Healthy organization is better able to fulfill its service mission.
• Conflict within an organization can have a direct negative impact on customers.
• Climate for diversity improves the way an organization operates.
• Survey results can be turned into strategies for change that will improve the organization’s climate and ultimately the experience of the customer.

Working Hypotheses
• The smaller the library staff size, the less likely that there will be differences among the standardized units in % agreement on the climate scales.
• There will be significant differences among the standardized units in % agreement on the climate scales;
• The standardized units will demonstrate the same rank order position in % agreement on different climate scales.
