Impact of Organizational Climate on Creative Abilities Development: Study of Algerian Vegetable Oils Group
This study investigates the impact of specific dimensions of organizational climate—namely, organizational structure, managerial leadership, goal setting, and communication—on enhancing employees' creative capabilities. Conducted within the Group of Algerian Vegetable Oils (GZA), the research employed a structured questionnaire distributed to a purposive sample of 50 employees from middle and executive management levels.
The data analysis utilized descriptive statistics (means and standard deviations), chi-square tests to examine relational hypotheses, and multiple linear regression to assess causal effects at a 0.05 significance level. The findings revealed that two dimensions—managerial leadership and communication—had a statistically significant and positive effect on fostering creativity among employees. In contrast, organizational structure and goal setting exhibited no significant impact.
The results underscore the critical role of managerial and communicative practices in cultivating an innovative organizational culture. The study concludes with a series of strategic recommendations aimed at developing the internal climate to boost innovation in Algeria’s industrial sector.
