Abstract: The purpose of the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Culture/Climate Survey is to provide a confidential mechanism for employees to share their feedback on the DLA organization culture and climate. DLA culture is assessed using the Denison Model of Organizational Culture and the associated survey instrument. The climate is assessed using a DLA-developed assessment on current strategic initiatives. As a result, the DLA Culture/Climate Survey provides an opportunity to engage DLA employees and leaders in thoughtful, data-driven discussions that lead to informed action and improve our collective organizational performance. The Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey (FEVS) cannot serve as a substitute for the DLA survey for several critical reasons, including its ability to produce a higher response rate; its increased granularity, i.e., down to work units thus allowing for thorough action planning; the fact that the DLA survey is a census, vs a sample, of the targeted universe; and that the climate portion of the DLA Culture/Climate Survey assesses various specific DLA strategic initiatives not assessed by FEVS.
