Download or read book O Great One written by David Novak and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rather than explain the power of recognition in a typical business book, acclaimed CEO David Novak wrote a fun story that draws on his real-world experiences at Pepsi and Yum! Brands, as well as his personal life. When was the last time you told your colleagues how much you value them? It sounds like a trivial thing in the middle of a busy work day. But as Novak discovered during his years as a hard charging executive, there’s nothing trivial about recognition. It can make a life-or-death difference to any organization, when people see that someone important really notices and appreciates their contributions. The story of O Great One! opens when Jeff Johnson becomes the third-generation CEO of his family business, after the sudden death of his father. The Happy Face Toy Company had many hits in the 1950s and 60s, including Crazy Paste, but its results have been declining for more than a decade. The board has given Jeff just one year to turn the business around, or else they’ll have to sell it to the highest bidder. As Jeff races to save his family’s legacy by getting the company back on track, he meets downtrodden factory workers and an uninspired executive team. Then a birthday gift from his grandson gives Jeff an important insight into why Happy Face lost its culture of innovation and excitement, along with its profitability. He comes up with an idea that seems crazy… But is it crazy enough to work? Whether you’re trying to lead a small department, a Fortune 500 company, a non-profit, or your own family, the story and lessons of O Great One! can help you make everyone around you happier and more effective.

Download or read book Impact of Employee Morale and the Organizational Culture written by Patricia Martinez (Graduate student) and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As depicted in the early 1900s, public administration has been an applied professional field of study. In today's contemporary society, management is criticized for lacking a humanistic side in public organizations. In the absence of this practice, it can affect the ecology of the organization, preclude the members of the organization from persevering, and causes a disservice to stakeholders. Therefore, the purpose of this research study is to identify the factors influencing employee morale, organizational communication, and culture. Also, this study will examine the nature of the relationship between defined variables and management styles. The research strategy is based on mix-method explanatory sequential design whereby collecting quantitative data from a survey, analyzing it, and from those results move forward to build a second qualitative phase of interviews. The study has implications for best management practices achieving a successful implementation of the new work home culture, due to deep-seated cultural practices and norms that are hallmarks of local level governments.

Download or read book The Enthusiastic Employee written by David Sirota and published by Pearson Education. This book was released on 2013 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about employee enthusiasm: that special, invigorating, purposeful and emotional state that's always present in the most successful organizations. Most people are enthusiastic when they're hired: hopeful, ready to work hard, eager to contribute. What happens? Management, that's what. The Enthusiastic Employee is an action-oriented book that helps companies obtain more from workers - the basic premise is that under the right kind of leadership, the more one side wins in a collaborative relationship, the more for the other side. The book is heavily evidence-based (using extensive employee survey data) and lays out two basic ideas: the "Three-Factor Theory" of human motivation at work and the "Partnership" company culture that is based on the Three-Factor Theory and that, by far, brings out the best in people as they respond with enthusiasm about what they do and the company they do it for. Drawing on research with 13,000,000+ employees in 840+ companies, The Enthusiastic Employee, Second Edition tells you what managers (from first-line supervisor to senior leadership) do wrong. Then it tells you something much more important: what to do instead. David Sirota and Douglas Klein detail exactly how to create an environment where enthusiasm flourishes and businesses excel. Extensively updated with new research, case studies, and techniques (they have added over 8.6 million employees and over 400 companies to their analyses ), it now contains a detailed study of Mayo Clinic, one of the world's most effective healthcare organizations and a true representation of the principle of partnership, as well as more in-depth descriptions of private sector exemplars of partnership, such as Costco. Other new chapters include: how the Great Recession really impacted workers' morale (bottom-line, it didn't) and how to build a true Partnership Culture that starts with senior leadership. They now debunk fashionable theories of worker "generations" (Baby Boomers, Gen X, Y, etc.) as mostly nonsense... clarify what they've learned about making business ethics and corporate social responsibility actionable... share what research on merit pay (pay for individual performance) tells us about its likely impact on school teachers and performance (not good)...discuss the utility of teleworking (and the dust-up at Yahoo)...offer compelling, data-informed insights about women and minorities in the workplace, and much more. You can have enthusiastic employees, and it does matter - more than it ever has. Whether you're a business leader, HR/talent management professional, or strategist, that's the workforce you need - and this is the book that will help you get it.

Download or read book The Effects of Leadership Organizational Culture on Employee Performance Resulting in High Turnover Low Morale and Decreased Productivity written by Vitasha Ali and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership is an essential component of higher education institutions as it influences the organization’s ability to fulfill its mission and achieve its goals. Leadership is vital as it affects employees in various areas that may influence their ability to perform their professional duties. Leadership is aligned with the success of an organization and impacts the motivation of employees on their achievement to successfully accomplish the institution’s goal. Transformational leaders encourage individuals to support each other and the organization as a whole and creates an environment of trust, loyalty and respect for the leader by the followers. This leadership style may be applied by leaders in higher education to improve the work experience of their followers. The purpose of this study was to better understand the relationship between transformational leadership and the following variables: employees’ job satisfaction, productivity, and affective commitment in such setting. The researcher used a quantitative non-experimental approach. A sample size of 100 participants was recruited to take part in the study. Data collection was done through three instruments: Leadership Practice Inventory (LPI), Three Component Model (TCM), and Index of Job Satisfaction (IJS). Data analysis was conducted through IBM SPSS (Version 27) and hypothesis tested was analyzed using Pearson Product Moment correlations. Increasing values of inspiring a shared vision corresponded with a greater feeling of job satisfaction. Additionally, increased values in inspiring a shared vision correspond to greater levels of affective commitment. Also, increasing scores in the enabling others to act measure corresponded to increased feelings of job satisfaction. Lastly, increased scores in the enabling others to act resulted in increased affective commitment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2003 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, University of Lincoln (International BA), course: Corporate Culture, language: English, abstract: Many articles and books have been written in recent years about culture in organizations, usually referred to as "Corporate Culture." The dictionary defines culture as "the act of developing intellectual and moral faculties, especially through education." This writing will use a slightly different definition of culture: "the moral, social, and behavioral norms of an organization based on the beliefs, attitudes, and priorities of its members." The terms "advanced culture" or "primitive culture" could apply to the first definition, but not the latter. Every organization has its own unique culture or value set. The culture of the organization is typically created unconsciously, based on the values of the top management or the founders of an organization.

Download or read book The Employee Experience Revolution written by John R. DiJulius and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2024-06-10 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Create a World-Class Workforce Every business out there is interested in earning profits. But sometimes the bottom line is not the best indicator of a company’s long-term health. In the wake of the Great Resignation, companies are scrambling to hold on to both employees and profits. It turns out that one answer is the key to both. The Employee Experience Revolution divulges the little-known secret of how to become a more profitable company, in both the short and long term: happy employees. “Your customers will never be any happier than your employees. Your people . . . create and deliver the experience that keeps customers coming back.” Authors John DiJulius III and David Murray, founder and VP of consulting, respectively, of The DiJulius Group, are experts in the customer and employee experience industry. The companies they have advised include Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, Lexus, and The Ritz-Carlton. The goal is to have processes and a culture that encourage employees to naturally buy in to a company’s brand so they voluntarily sing their employer’s praises while providing stellar customer service. Pay is only one factor. A healthy organization will strive to give their employees job satisfaction by providing purpose, recognition, appropriate expectations, and even like-minded coworkers. The principles in this book can be applied to any company, large or small, to help improve how their organization runs as well as their bottom line.

Download or read book Primed to Perform written by Neel Doshi and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revolutionary book that teaches you how to use the cutting edge of human psychology to build high performing workplace cultures. Too often, great cultures feel like magic. While most leaders believe culture is critical to success, few know how to build one, or sustain it over time. What if you knew the science behind the magic—a science so predictive and powerful that you could transform your organization? What if you could use cutting edge psychology to unlock people’s innate desire to innovate, experiment, and adapt? In Primed to Perform, Neel Doshi and Lindsay McGregor show you how to do just that. The result: higher sales, more loyal customers, and more passionate employees. Primed to Perform explains the counter-intuitive science behind great cultures, building on over a century of academic thinking. It shares the simple, highly predictive new measurement tool—the Total Motivation (ToMo) Factor—that enables you to measure the strength of your culture, and track improvements over time. It explores the authors’ original research into how Total Motivation leads to higher performance in iconic companies, from Apple to Starbucks to Southwest Airlines. Most importantly, it teaches you to build great cultures, using a systematic and sustainable approach. High performing cultures cant be left to chance. Organizations must create systems that shape and maintain them. Whether you’re a five-person team or a startup, a school, a nonprofit or a mega-institution, Primed to Perform shows you how.

Download or read book Human Centered Organizational Culture written by Maria-Teresa Lepeley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is part of the Human Centered Book Trilogy, the 2021 volumes of the Routledge Human Centered Management HCM Series. HCM books are pioneering transformation from the traditional humans-as-a-resource approach of the industrial past, to the humans at the center management and organizational paradigm of the 21st century. HCM is built on talent and wellbeing of people in the workplace driving work engagement, quality standards, high performance and productivity for long-term organizational sustainability in the global VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) environment. This book was carefully crafted by recognized international human centered scholars from four continents. Although all organizations seek to have an optimal culture, unstoppable disruptions in the VUCA environment easily derail even the best efforts. Conventional assumptions of culture as a unifying organizational force are hardly defendable today. HCM maintains that culture is not only about cohesiveness and consensus but effective management of conflict and disagreements continuously testing the capacity of people to work together. This book is about organizational transformation positioning people at the center. Complementary chapters integrate as antidotes to overcome disruptions in the VUCA environment and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic affecting people and organizations worldwide. This and its two complementary titles Soft Skills for Human Centered Management and Global Sustainability and Sensible Leadership: Human Centered, Insightful and Prudent are timely readings for leaders, managers, researchers, academics, practitioners, students and the general public responsible for organizations across industries and sectors worldwide pursuing quality standards and organizational transformation to attain sustainability.

Download or read book Organisational culture as a management tool written by Matthias Arnold and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2006-05-29 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: 72%, University of Bradford (School Of Management), course: Organisational Behaviour, language: English, abstract: This assignment aims at discussing whether a strong organisational culture which can be used as a tool of management control helps to both motivate staff and improve company performance and should therefore be encouraged. Organisational culture can be defined as “the basic values, ideologies and assumptions which guide and fashion individual and business behaviour.” (Wilson and Rosenfeld 1990, p.229). Following Schein, organisational culture can be subdivided into three levels, representing the visibility to the observer. Most visible are the culture’s artefacts or surface manifestations, including organisational structure, processes, physical environment, technology and products, employees clothing, manners of address as well as language and company myths. These and other artefacts can be discovered while interacting with the organisation as an employee, customer or other stakeholder. The second level are espoused beliefs and values. The companies set of values normally establishes over a long period emerging from the founders and managements own mindset. These values are (or better should be) adopted by all employees as a part of their own values and beliefs and are also manifested as stated company values. The third and most in-depth level of organisational culture are the underlying basic assumptions. They evolve when beliefs and values become treated as reality, though they are never visible to an observer and can be described as the company’s own culture (Schein 2004). An important factor, when looking at organisational culture is the similarity or differences of the management’s and the employee’s view of corporate culture. A high match of organizational culture levels results in a strong organisational culture whereas differences in both groups’ mindsets lead towards a weak culture. Important thereby is not only a match of the culture’s manifestations, which only leads to a superficial strong culture, much more significant is sharing of the same values and underlying assumptions (Hartog and Verburg 2004). In a strong organisational culture, common thinking and views between employers and employees may eventually result in a better working atmosphere, an alignment of the workforce and ultimately in better performance (Deal and Kennedy 2000). Weak corporate cultures on the other hand are marked by less shared values, beliefs and assumptions and are less stringent in its thinking but are therefore also more open to changes and fluctuations.

Download or read book Memory as a Moral Decision written by Steve Feldman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of organizational culture has become a matter of central importance with the great increase in the size of organizations in the twentieth century and the need for managers to run them. Like morale in the military, organizational culture is the great invisible force that decides the difference between success and failure and serves as the key to organizational change, productivity, effectiveness, control, innovation, and communication. Memory as a Moral Decision, provides a historical review of the literature on organizational culture. Its goal is to investigate the kind of world conceptualized by those who have described organizations and the kind of moral world they have in fact constructed, through its ideals and images, for the men and women who work in organizations.Feldman builds his analysis around a historically grounded concept of moral tradition. He demonstrates a central insight: when those who have written on organizational culture have addressed issues of ethics, they have ignored the past as a foundation to stabilize and maintain moral commitments. Instead, they have fluctuated between attempts to base ethics on executive rationality and attempts to escape the suffocating logic of rationalism. After an opening chapter defining the concept of moral tradition, Feldman focuses on early works on organizational management by Chester Barnard and Melville Dalton. These define the tension between ethical rationalism and ethical relativism. He then turns to contemporary frameworks, analyzing critical organizational theory and the "new institutionalism." In the final chapters, Feldman considers ethical relativism in contemporary thinking, including postmodern organization theory, the exaggerated drive for diversity, and such concepts as power/knowledge and deconstructionism.Memory as a Moral Decision is unique in its understanding of organizational culture as it relates to past, present, and future systems. Its interdisciplinary approach uses the insights of sociology, psychology, and culture studies to create an invaluable framework for the study of ethics in organizations.
