How often should leadership be briefed on CCA results?

Leadership should be briefed on Command Climate Assessment (CCA) results within 60 days after the Defense Organizational Climate Survey (DEOCS) closing for annual CCA because this timeframe ensures that leadership receives timely information that is relevant and can influence decision-making. A prompt briefing allows leaders to act swiftly on the feedback provided, address any emerging issues, and implement necessary changes to improve the organizational climate. This practice promotes a proactive approach to enhancing the work environment and fosters a culture of responsiveness to feedback.

Timely updates on climate assessment results are crucial for maintaining engagement and trust within the organization, as they demonstrate that leadership values the input of team members and is committed to making improvements based on survey outcomes. Additionally, adhering to this 60-day window aligns with best practices in organizational health management and supports ongoing dialogue about workplace culture.
