Much of the hoopla surrounding quality circles, teams, and high-performance work systems has been based on anecdotes and very thin evidence. It has not been established that those employee involvement strategies amount to anything more than another series of management fads or ruses designed to get more out of workers without giving them anything in return. This revelatory book, written by some of the skeptics, lays some of the suspicion to rest. Based on their visits to 44 plants and surveys of more than 4,000 employees, Eileen Appelbaum, Thomas Bailey, Peter Berg, and Arne L. Kalleberg concluded that companies are indeed more successful when managers share knowledge and power with workers and when workers assume increased responsibility and discretion. The study of steel, apparel, and medical electronics and imaging plants revealed much. In self-directed teams, workers were able to eliminate bottlenecks and coordinate the work process. In task forces created to improve quality, they communicated with individuals outside their own work groups and were able to solve problems. Expensive equipment in steel mills operated with fewer interruptions, turnaround and labor costs were cut in apparel factories, and costly inventories of components and medical equipment were reduced. And what did the employees think? The worker survey showed that jobs in participatory work systems often provide more challenging tasks and more opportunities for creativity. Employees in apparel had higher hourly earnings; those in steel had both higher hourly earnings and higher job satisfaction. Workers in more participatory settings were no more likely than others to report heavy workloads or excessive demands on their time. They were, however, less likely to report involuntary overtime or conflict with co-workers, and were more likely to be satisfied with their surroundings. Manufacturing Advantage provides the best assessment available of the effectiveness of high-performance work systems. Freestanding chapters near the end of the book provide full documentation of research data without interrupting the narrative flow.

Contemporary thinking about management is still frequently presented as a set of universal, eternal verities. In this fascinating book Roy Jacques presents a discursive history of industrial work relationships in the United States which powerfully demonstrates that they are not. A central concern is to show that current `common-sense' in management forms an historically and culturally specific way of thinking about work and society which is often inappropriate for `managing for the twenty-first century'. The author is equally interested in revealing the cultural basis for American management ideas, currently exported round the world as an objective science, disconnected from its cultural and historical roots. Roy Jacques considers: the Federalist world of the U S (c 1800-1870) and the traces of 19th century `pre-management' notions continuing in 20th century management and industrial discourse; the emergence and development of industrial organization and big business; the profound remapping of the boundaries of social life which occurred with the creation of jobs and wages; and the evolving construction of the employee as increasingly a disciplinary subject of psychological, personnel and general management knowledge. He also looks at several major current management and organizational topics such as: motivation, leadership and power in organizations; productivity and efficiency; work and the family; ideas about Total Quality Management, Business Process Re-engineering, `knowledge work' and so on.

Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Personnel and Organisation, grade: 1,3, Griffith College Dublin, language: English, abstract: This text will examine how performance management has changed, what was important in the past and what are the trends for the future. The focus will be on small companies. A performance management system is a part of human resource management. Through the system, a company can see the development of each employee's performance. This includes all performance appraisals, training and actions that have been done and that will be done in the future. The most important process in this change, as will be concluded, is a well-developed performance management system that both, managers and employees, appreciate. It can help to have everyone's highest performance if it is able to value the individual. This is a challenge for the big companies as well as for the smaller ones. No one can say what is the best system, it depends on the company's individual needs.

If you are looking for employee engagement ideas, you're in the right place. It's no secret. Your employees' satisfaction level is a key factor in staff retention. With the high costs associated with your employee turnover rate, it's important to figure out your retention strategies now. Employee engagement is a widely used term, so much so that many organizations consider it cliche and don't take the concept as seriously as they should. There is a big difference between employee satisfaction and happiness. A satisfied employee shows up at work, does his or her job and leaves. On the other hand, when employees are emotionally committed to their employer, they are said to be highly engaged. Your employees are no longer working simply for a paycheck or promotion. Newer generations want to care about both their work and the organization they for which they do their job. Engaged employees bring in their full effort so that they contribute more to the organization's overall goals. Why does discretionary effort matter? Because it means that they are doing their job without being asked, lowering their need to be constantly supervised and increasing their productivity, levels of customer service, sales, profits, and goodwill. In short, employee engagement achievement is vital for employees and their employers. Face it; your best employees have the power to take their skills elsewhere. And that leaves your leadership team with an enormous challenge: winning the war for top talent! You need employee retention techniques that work. Taking an employee engagement survey is a good first step, but without followup action to connect with and engage your team, your survey efforts alone are futile. This employee disengagement trend reaches far beyond just manufacturing. The Gallup organization reports close to 71% of all staff feel unsupported, detached, or disengaged from their current employer. The impact costs US businesses more than $450 billion in lost productivity each year. In this book, you'll find many strategies to will help you experience the benefits of having an engaged workforce. Open up the book to any page and implement the ideas and strategies listed. Encourage and empower your leadership team to go beyond the engagement questionnaire. Find out what employees want to increase their satisfaction levels and then help them get it. The bad news is that disengagement levels have been about the same for companies overall since Gallup and other organizations started measuring engagement levels. The good news is we already know how to discourage top talent from leaving: keep them engaged. With an engaged workforce, employees work harder, have fewer safety incidents, and are more loyal and profitable to their company. Studies show that engaged employees have: - 50% fewer accidents - 41% fewer quality defects - 30% fewer health care costs Not surprisingly, unhappy workers return only 60% of their salary in the value they provide. With an estimated five million manufacturing jobs going unfilled by 2020, it's time to take smart steps to make sure your company isn't affected. That means creating a workplace culture that works ... based on proven results, fresh ideas and new ways of generating loyalty from your staff. Use the employee engagement strategies in this book to help your company be an employer of choice. Engagement techniques work - if you work them!

This is the handbook for men who are in the business of building AMERICA. Black Mountain Manufacturing (BMM) in Greeley, Colorado, is one of today's fastest-growing production companies, and their break-neck blitz onto the industrial manufacturing scene has been due to one thing above all else: getting top performance from top-of-the-line people. In this manual, BMM lays down the groundwork of expectations for the budding relationship between its new employees and their new company. The lessons within, however, apply across all industrial sectors. Not recommended for those who don't have balls, and/or don't know what to do with them.
