Abstract
The objective of this paper is to validate a measurement instrument based on a five-point Likert scale, which can be used to evaluate the implementation of the 10 Elements proposed for the success of organizational transformations in companies from diverse economic sectors in Colombia's Valle del Cauca region. This study was conducted in three stages: first, the design of the instrument, which included the 10 Elements (categorized into principals and basics) and 40 items (four for each element); second, the administration of the surveys to organizations; and finally, the statistical analysis that verified the reliability of the scale using specialized software, and validity through the work of discriminant and convergent statistics.
The findings of the study were satisfactory, as demonstrated through the various descriptive statistical indicators used. The results concluded that this instrument can serve as a basis for academic and professional studies interested in evaluating the management of organizational transformation projects.
Overall, this paper provides a thorough and reliable validation of the measurement instrument and its usefulness for evaluating the success of organizational transformations in Colombia's Valle del Cauca region.
