Organizational Diagnostic “Molecular” Model
The
“Molecular” Model is a new diagnostic tool that captures the dynamic,
organic complexity of the ways in which the elements of an organization
interact with and influence each other. It can be used either as a tool for
greater understanding of the complex dynamics of organizations or as a
"lens" that allows practitioners to focus interventions for the greatest
impact. |

The Case Against Using Written Comments in Organizational
Surveys Well-designed
open-ended questions provide a forum employees to voice concerns that were
not specifically addressed in the scaled items. In addition, management will
often learn about unexpected concerns through the use of such open-ended
responses. The danger exists, however, that robust statistical results may
be overlooked because a few contrary comments are given more weight than
they deserve. |

the same scrutiny that has traditionally been applied to the more
quantitative assets of companies. |
