Abstract: The study focuses on the impact of climate on organisational development, encompassing a wide range of factors like regulations, constraints, and philanthropic efforts. The climate within an organisation distinguishes it from others and is pivotal in enhancing employee well-being. This research employs primary quantitative methods, utilising SPSS for analysis. It features nine main questions, supplemented by two demographic queries, with 51 participants. Analytical techniques such as frequency distribution, correlation, linear regression, and the Cronbach alpha test were applied. The results show a positive correlation between the variables, with the statistical significance of the analysis confirmed through ANOVA and the model summary, indicated by a 'si' value of 0. The high Cronbach alpha value suggests strong internal consistency among the variables. The study reveals that the organisational environment can bolster employee reliance or diminish effectiveness. It also highlights that an organisation's culture should manifest in its climate.
