Dengan adanya kreativitas, suatu organisasi akan mampu bertahan dan tetap eksis dalam dinamika lingkungan bisnis. Untuk dapat memunculkan kreativitas pada setiap individu perlu adanya iklim organisasi yang kondusif bagi terciptanya kreativitas. Elemen penting yang dapat menghambat ataupun merangsang kreativitas adalah persepsi individu mengenai seberapa kondusif kondisi iklim organisasi tersebut mendukung untuk menjadi kreatif. .Penelitian ini dilakukan di PT Kaltim Pasifik Amoniak yang berlokasi di Bontang dengan tujuan untuk menganalisis perbedaan persepsi karyawan berdasarkan status manajerial dan usia pada iklim organisasi yang mendukung untuk kreativitas. Pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menyebar kuesioner kepada 87 karyawan direct hires, dan sebanyak 67 kuesioner dari responden dianalisis. Instrumen penelitian menggunakan kuesioner KEYS (Assessing the Climate for Creativity). Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan alpha cronbach, ANOVA, dan MANOVA. Hasil analisis menunjukkan tidak terdapat perbedaan persepsi yang signifikan antara karyawan manajer dan non-manajer begitu juga antara usia tua dan muda terhadap keseluruhan iklim organisasi yang mendukung kreativitas. Sedangkan terhadap setiap dimensi iklim organisasi juga tidak terdapat perbedaan persepsi yang signifikan antara manajer dan non-manajer (kecuali dimensi freedom) serta antara usia tua dan muda. Karyawan manajer mempersepsikan dimensi iklim freedom lebih kondusif dalam memunculkan ide kreatif daripada karyawan non-manajer (operasional).
