Student Success
Researchers at the National Initiative for Leadership and Institutional
Effectiveness (NILIE) and representatives of the Alamo Community College District collaborated to administer a survey that would capture the opinions of personnel throughout the college.
In February 2012, the Personal Assessment of the College Environment (PACE) survey was administered to 891 employees at St. Philip’s College (SPC). The purpose of the survey was to obtain the perceptions of personnel concerning the college climate and to provide data to assist SPC in promoting more open and constructive communication among faculty, staff, and administrators.

PACE Survey Results
St. Philip’s College Climate
Rated by All Employees
In reviewing each of the items separately, the data shows that of the 56 mean scores, no items fell within the Coercive management style (i.e., a mean score rating between 1.0 and 2.0). Twelve items fell within the Competitive management style (i.e., a mean score rating between
2.0 and 3.0). Forty fell within a Consultative management style (i.e., a mean score rating between 3.0 and 4.0), and four fell within a Collaborative management style (i.e., a mean score rating between 4.0 and 5.0).
At SPC, the overall results from the PACE instrument indicate a healthy campus climate, yielding an overall 3.54 mean score or middle Consultative system. The Student Focus category received the highest mean score (3.87), whereas the Institutional Structure category received the lowest mean score (3.05).

33. SPC 2012
PACE Survey Results
NILIE Four Systems Model
Consultative
Leaders have substantial but not complete confidence and trust in employees
Employees are significantly involved in the decision-making process
Leaders consult with followers regarding decisions
Lower levels exercise cooperation toward accomplishment of goals
Influence is through rewards process; Occasional punishment and some collaboration occur
There is much interest in organizational climate studies and their relation to current thinking about leadership. The times require different assumptions regarding leader-follower relations and the choice of appropriate leadership strategies that lead to achievement of organizational goals. This report may help St. Philip’s College understand and improve the overall climate by examining perceptions and estimates of quality and excellence across personnel groups. This report may also provide benchmarks and empirical data that can be systematically integrated into effective planning models and change strategies for St. Philip’s College .
The purposes of leadership are based in these values: To create a supportive environment where people can grow, thrive, and live in peace with one another; To promote harmony with nature and thereby provide sustainability for future generations; and To create communities of reciprocal care and shared responsibility where every person matters and each person’s welfare and dignity is respected and supported.
Researchers have discovered a strong relationship between the climate of an organization and the leadership styles of the managers and leaders in the organization.

35. Top Mean Scores SPC 2012 PACE Survey Results
Of the 46 standard PACE questions, the top mean scores were identified. These represent the highest ratings throughout the four Climate Factors – Institutional Structure, Supervisory Relationships, Teamwork, and Student Focus.
The PACE instrument administered at SPC included 56 total items. Respondents were asked to rate items on a five-point satisfaction scale from a low of “1” to a high of “5.” Of the 56 items, none fell within the least favorable category identified as the Coercive range (rated between 1 and 2). Twelve items fell within the Competitive range (rated between 2 and 3). Forty fell within the Consultative range (rated between 3 and 4), and four composite ratings fell within the Collaborative range (rated between 4 and 5).
When respondents were classified according to Personnel Classification at SPC, the composite ratings were as follows: Administrator (4.13), Professional (3.58), Classified (3.58), and Faculty (3.47).
