Abstract

Organizational Health research identifies it as an important key to institutional growth and development and emphasizes its relevance in enhancing productivity and performance of an institution. This study measures the organizational health of an institution and also delineates significant contributing factors which are responsible for transforming into healthy organization. Research in the area of Task, Maintenance and Growth and Development need was used to develop a framework for integrating different elements of organizational health. Within this framework, the task need was assessed by goal focus, communication adequacy and optimal power equalization; maintenance need was assessed by resource utilization, cohesiveness and morale; and Growth and Development need was assessed by innovativeness, adaptation and problem solving adequacy. Organizational Health was investigated within the framework using structured schedule from a sample of total 500 respondents – 250 from public academic institutions and 250 from private academic institutions in National Capital Region. It was found that Organizational Health prevailing in public institution was perceived significantly higher than that prevailing in private institution and that is largely because of the perception of the teaching staff of the public institution. It was further researched that the institutional authority in public institution needs to embrace reasonable flexibility to maintain a good health of their organization. The private institution should work on its institutional cohesiveness and adaptation.
