Using the Innovation Climate Questionnaire (ICQ) can help release the creative potential within your team/organisation.

Research has found that organisational climate is key in the success of organisations and teams. Innovation Centre Europe (ICE) provide a comprehensive measure of your organisational climate, the Innovation Climate Questionnaire (ICQ).

Using the ICQ can be an important step towards increasing levels of creativity and innovation in your organisation. Taking only ten minutes to complete, the ICQ assesses work climate factors that can promote or stifle innovation and creativity within your organisation. It is an invaluable tool for managers and HR professionals who need to understand the work climate within a team, department, division, or entire organisation.

By identifying strengths and weaknesses in various aspects of your work climate, the ICQ provides a rigorous tool that can be used to inform decisions relating to changing your organisational climate. The ICQ assesses employees view of your organisation / team / department. An understanding of this shared perception is central to organisational change and development. Moreover, the ICQ can be used as an ongoing audit process in your organisation, for example to monitor the success of organisational change interventions.
