Book excerpt: Chapter FivePerformance measurement influenceseffectivenessPerformance means understanding as achievement of the organization in relation with its set goals. It may include outcomes achieved, or accomplished through contribution of individuals or teams to the organization's strategic goals. It brings this question whether effective performance measurement can raise the organization's effectiveness. Performance has a linkage with the individual potential and how best it is realized by the individual organization needs performance measurement because it needs to measure every employee individual job behavior in order to evaluate whether his/her performance is acceptable to either raise salary/ wage or keep the same level salary/wage or appreciate to promote higher or senior position or unemploy ( fire) the employee, when his/her performance is poor or unacceptable task level to earn this position level's reward with regard to manage. The employee's potential becomes the input to the productive process and performance is the out. It seems that when the one organization has many good performance employees number, then its effectiveness can not be improved to be better to compare the another similar industry organization has less good performance employees number , then its effectiveness can not improve to be better. The actua reason many include any company is one cooperative organization, it needs different teams or departments' members , workers, staffs to participate to work in low, middle, top level organizational structure. Hence, one organizational behavior can not be influenced only by one employee individual behavior or performance. The organization's overall performance or effectiveness ought be influenced by group ( team) and organizational purpose, group ( team) or organization capacities and resources, human climate in the group or team or the organization, the ( team) group every member personal performance quality, efficient level , productive level. So, organization needs to consider how to make reasonable or fair feedback on group ( team) overall performance. It does not only consider how to make reasonable or fair feedback on the top or middle level management employee individual performance only and it neglects to consider the low level employee individual performance measurement.There are three abilities in an individual are said to be essential for performance achievement to evaluate whether the employee individual performance to excellent , good, common, poor level. They include the employee individual desire or motivation himself/herself ability, knowledge or know-how quality or action to actualize ability. Hence, one excellent performance employee whom ought have these above personal quality or ability characteristics, then he/she can perform the esscellent job performance. If the team or group or department owns the employees whom own above these abilities , then group, team, department's effectiveness will be improved, or efficiency can be raised, or productive growth can be raised more easily. However, effective performance measurement model was based mainly on financial measures and considered as one component of the planning and control cycle view, it is based on multipl non financial measures where performance measurement acts as an independent process includes in a set of activities.

This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past half-century has witnessed a dramatic increase in the scale and complexity of scientific research. The growing scale of science has been accompanied by a shift toward collaborative research, referred to as "team science." Scientific research is increasingly conducted by small teams and larger groups rather than individual investigators, but the challenges of collaboration can slow these teams' progress in achieving their scientific goals. How does a team-based approach work, and how can universities and research institutions support teams? Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science synthesizes and integrates the available research to provide guidance on assembling the science team; leadership, education and professional development for science teams and groups. It also examines institutional and organizational structures and policies to support science teams and identifies areas where further research is needed to help science teams and groups achieve their scientific and translational goals. This report offers major public policy recommendations for science research agencies and policymakers, as well as recommendations for individual scientists, disciplinary associations, and research universities. Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science will be of interest to university research administrators, team science leaders, science faculty, and graduate and postdoctoral students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every job can lead to stress. How people cope with that stress can be influenced by many factors. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) employs a diverse staff that includes emergency responders, border patrol agents, federal air marshals, and policy analysts. These employees may be exposed to traumatic situations and disturbing information as part of their jobs. DHS is concerned that long-term exposure to stressors may reduce individual resilience, negatively affect employees' well-being, and deteriorate the department's level of operation readiness. To explore DHS workforce resilience, the Institute of Medicine hosted two workshops in September and November 2011. The September workshop focused on DHS's operational and law enforcement personnel, while the November workshop concentrated on DHS policy and program personnel with top secret security clearances. The workshop brought together an array of experts from various fields including resilience research, occupation health psychology, and emergency response. Building a Resilient Workforce: Opportunities for the Department of Homeland Security: Workshop Summary: Defines workforce resilience and its benefits such as increased operational readiness and long-term cost savings for the specified population; Identifies work-related stressors faced by DHS workers, and gaps in current services and programs; Prioritizes key areas of concern; and Identifies innovative and effective worker resilience programs that could potentially serve as models for relevant components of the DHS workforce. The report presents highlights from more than 20 hours of presentations and discussions from the two workshops, as well as the agendas and a complete listing of the speakers, panelists, and planning committee members.

Book excerpt: In fact, any organization is difficult to confirm it has relationship between improving performance, raising efficiency and owning (FM) function in its organization. (FM) could have to do with the attraction of easy but incomplete indicators of efficiency rather than the necessarily and less direct measures if the effectiveness and the relevance of space moving useful management, e.g. whether building has the enough space to let employees to move to work easy in order to raise efficiency, whether the building has excessive furniture and equipment number and they are putted on wrong places to be caused employees move difficulty in the building in order to influence productive performance.However, how to arrange space moving management to equipment, e.g. copying machines, faxes, productive machines, they are putted on the locations where have enough space to let employees to move to another locations. For example, the building floor has more than 50 employees, but its space is not enough to let these 50 employees to move to any locations to let them to feel easily often. Then, it is possible to cause they feel nervous pressure and they can feel difficult to work , when they are working in a small office space or factory space or warehouse space. Then, the consequence will be under-predictive efficiency or poor performance to any one of these 50 employees in this office or factory or warehouse." Facility management is responsible for coordinating all efforts related to planning, designing, and managing buildings and their systems, equipment, and furniture to enhance. The organizations abilty to compete successfully in a rapidly changing world." ( F.Becker)The author explains equipment, workplace internal space designing, furniture space putting location arrangement will have possible to influence employee individual productive performance or efficiency to be raised or reduced in the workplace.

Then, they can not concentrate nervous on finishing every tasks in possible. In long term, their efficiencies will be poor or inefficiencies or their performance won't be improved or causing poor performance in possible.Instead of the not enough space moving and excessive staffs number factor, it will bring another question: Can enough information systems equipment cause a more efficient and improved performance to the organization staffs in the workplace?

Book excerpt: What are the secrets of successful teams? Why do some teams achieve remarkable success while others fail or are consigned to mediocrity? To find the answers, Carl E. Larson and Frank M.J. LaFasto conducted a three-year study of teams and team achievement. Interviewing a wide range of teams, including the space shuttle Challenger investigation team, executive management teams and a championship football team, Larson and LaFasto discovered a surprising consistency in the characteristics of effective teams. In Teamwork, they explore the eight properties of successful teams: a clear, elevating goal; a results-driven structure; competent team members; unified commitment; collaborative climate; standards of excellence; external support and recognition; and principled leadership. A final chapter examines the priority of the steps that lead to the building of a high performance team. The authors strive to make the concepts concrete, coupling solid theory with straightforward, practical advice on how to apply it and with lively, fascinating anecdotes. The volume will appeal to practitioners, scholars, and advanced students in the areas of organization studies and management, as well as interpersonal communication.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summarized herein are the results of a three-year research program, encompassing the period from 1 July 1977 through 30 June 1980, that focused upon an experimental analysis of the interacting motivational and social factors which influence performance effectiveness in small groups under conditions of continuous residence and observation in a closed ecological environment. Studies were conducted with three-person groups of human volunteers over extended periods in a residential laboratory which provided for programmable work and recreational opportunities within the context of a biologically and behaviorally supportive environmental setting. Investigative emphasis was directed toward (1) the motivational effects on team participants produced by the programmed consequences of individual and group work tasks, and (2) the impact on established and novitiate team participants of a change in group composition and size. Performance effectiveness was evaluated in terms of group productivity and individual accuracy on a multiple-task-performance-battery developed during the course of the research program. The significance of these investigative endeavors is to be understood in terms of the emerging motivational and social-interaction principles having practical relevance to the establishment and maintenance of operational team performance effectiveness.

This book was released on 1999 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The military, along with private industry, is relying more on small teams of specialized individuals who work together to achieve a common goal. Examples of these teams include emergency medical teams, aircrews, decision- making teams, industrial project teams, Special Forces teams, weapon system crews and everyday work teams. Training and military doctrine has been evolving to reflect this emphasis on teamwork. The purpose of this annotated bibliography is to review literature published over the last ten years concerning team and small group performance. Specifically, the articles reviewed in this report represent a sampling of the research published in the social sciences, including psychology, sociology, and business. The team and small group literature reviewed includes examples of the many types of teams mentioned earlier. A summary and integration of this work is provided. In general, the research suggests that there are several components which contribute to the successful performance of teams, and that some of these components can be explicitly trained. Several training models are discussed." -- Stinet.
