  • The Social Economy
    McKinsey Global Institute McKinsey Global Institute The social economy: Unlocking value and productivity through social technologies social through productivity and value Unlocking economy: The social July 2012 The social economy: Unlocking value and productivity through social technologies The McKinsey Global Institute The McKinsey Global Institute (MGI), the business and economics research arm of McKinsey & Company, was established in 1990 to develop a deeper understanding of the evolving global economy. Our goal is to provide leaders in the commercial, public, and social sectors with the facts and insights on which to base management and policy decisions. MGI research combines the disciplines of economics and management, employing the analytical tools of economics with the insights of business leaders. Our “micro-to-macro” methodology examines microeconomic industry trends to better understand the broad macroeconomic forces affecting business strategy and public policy. MGI’s in-depth reports have covered more than 20 countries and 30 industries. Current research focuses on six themes: productivity and growth; the evolution of global financial markets; the economic impact of technology and innovation; urbanization; the future of work; and natural resources. Recent reports have assessed job creation, resource productivity, cities of the future, and the impact of big data. MGI is led by three McKinsey & Company directors: Richard Dobbs, James Manyika, and Charles Roxburgh. Susan Lund serves as director of research. Project teams are led by a group of senior fellows and include consultants from McKinsey’s offices around the world. These teams draw on McKinsey’s global network of partners and industry and management experts. In addition, leading economists, including Nobel laureates, act as research advisers.

  • What Is the Relationship Between Employee Engagement and Job
    Running Head: TASK 3 WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT AND JOB SATISFACTION TO ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT IN SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT? AN EXAMINATION OF THESE CAUSAL FACTORS IN SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGERS IN THE MIDDLE EAST by Phaylinh “Tia” Nosavan Prang _______________________ Doctoral Study Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Business Administration ______________________ Liberty University, School of Business May 2020 Running Head: TASK 3 ii Abstract In the Middle East, one of the biggest challenges facing supply chain business leaders was the expatriate assignment failures, an average turnover rate of 12%, with the main reason an inability to cope with lifestyle adjustments due to cultural and family pressures. Additionally, fifty-one percent of expatriates leave the multinational corporation (MNC) within two years of repatriation (De Ruiter, Lub, Jansma, and Blomme, 2018; Haak-Saheem, Darwish, & Al-Nasser, 2017; Stoermer, Haslberger, Froese, & Kraeh, 2018). The Middle Eastern workforce showed the disproportionate ratio of expatriates to local nationals in which nearly 99% of employees in the private sector in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) were expatriates (De Ruiter et al., 2018 & Haak-Saheem et al., 2017). The purpose of this quantitative correlation study is to examine the relationship between independent variables (employee engagement-EE and job satisfaction-JS), and dependent variable (organizational commitment-OC) in the supply chain managers of the Middle East organization. The findings of this study showed that there are statistically significant relationships among EE, JS, and OC, indicating the p-values lower than the alpha level of 0.05 for all variables. The findings also showed that age does have a moderating effect on the relationship between EE and OC, Beta = 0.115, p = 0.049, but not in the relationship between JS and OC.

  • Employee Perceptions of Federal Workplace Violence
    Employee Perceptions of FEDERAL WORKPLACE VIOLENCE A Report to the President and the Congress of the United States by the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board September 2012 THE CHAIRMAN U.S. MERIT SYSTEMS PROTECTION BOARD 1615 M Street, NW Washington, DC 20419-0001 The President President of the Senate Speaker of the House of Representatives Dear Sirs: In accordance with the requirements of 5 U.S.C. § 1204(a)(3), it is my honor to submit this report, Employee Perceptions of Federal Workplace Violence. Workplace violence can result in a number of direct costs to organizations and can affect employee productivity and morale, which violates the merit system principle of the efficient and effective use of the Federal workforce. A second merit system principle, that Federal employees maintain high standards of integrity and conduct, is violated when Federal employees exhibit violent behavior in the workplace. The results of our survey of Federal employees indicate that when an incident of physical assault, threat of assault, harassment, intimidation, or bullying occurs in a Federal workplace, it is most likely caused by current or former Federal employees rather than customers, criminals, or those who have a personal relationship with an employee. One-quarter of the violent incidents that Federal employees observed over a two-year period resulted in either physical injury or damage to or loss of property. Our findings indicate that a majority of survey respondents believe their agencies take sufficient steps to ensure their safety while at work. However, fewer respondents who observed violent acts by current or former Federal employees or by employees’ abusive intimate partners agreed that their agencies take sufficient steps to ensure their safety than did employees who observed violent acts by other individuals.

  • Effective Employee Engagement in the Workplace
    International Journal of Applied Management and Technology 2017, Volume 16, Issue 1, Pages 50–67 ©Walden University, LLC, Minneapolis, MN DOI:10.5590/IJAMT.2017.16.1.04 Effective Employee Engagement in the Workplace Schrita Osborne Walden University Mohamad S. Hammoud Walden University Disengaged employees typically cost U.S. corporations $350 billion annually. The purpose of this case study was to explore strategies that some communication business leaders use to engage their employees. The target population consisted of four communication business leaders in Jackson, Mississippi, who possessed at least 1 year of successful employee engagement experience. The self-determination theory served as the study’s conceptual framework. Semistructured interviews were conducted, and the participating company’s archived documents were gathered. Patterns were identified through a rigorous process of data familiarization, data coding, and theme development and revision. Interpretations from the data were subjected to member-checking to ensure trustworthiness of the findings. Based on the methodological triangulation of the data collected, prominent themes emerged from thematically analyzing the data: rewards and recognition, empowering employees, and building a bond between leaders and employees. Keywords: human resources, disengagement, productivity, leadership Introduction The survival of corporate industries is dependent on maximizing profits from existing capabilities, while recognizing and adjusting to the fact that what may work today may not necessarily work in the future (Kortmann, Gelhard, Zimmermann, & Piller, 2014). To make or maintain their companies’ profitability, leaders of companies must work hard to engage employees (Kortmann et al., 2014). However, leaders may sometimes struggle to adapt their organization in response to change if they limit their focus to existing products and processes (Hill & Birkinshaw, 2012).

  • NOVA Behavioral Healthcare Corporation Annual Employee
    BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE CORPORATION ………………..lighting the way to new beginnings NOVA Behavioral Healthcare Corporation Annual Employee Surveys Report, PRTF July, 2011 Overview Employee satisfaction has extensive effects on the operations of any organization, and these effects can be augmented in sectors based in interaction and relationship (i.e. human services). Therefore, it is important for NOVA, Inc. PRTF to annually collect, analyze, and review data on employee satisfaction. This has been accomplished through semi-annual employee surveys that measure satisfaction in the following areas: Day-to-Day Job Duties, Supervision and Co- workers, Leadership/Management, Policies and Practices, and Working Conditions and Benefits. Each of these sections includes a series of statements which can be rated on a 1-3 scale ( 1= Disagree, 2=Agree, 3= Agree strongly ). Survey results are a topic of high priority at Leadership Council meetings and have helped direct policy in the past. NOVA Inc.’s management considers employee satisfaction to be comprehensive gauge of the company’s health since its effects are far-reaching. Uninvolved, dispassionate staff can have the following negative consequences: • Diminished quality of service A disengaged employee is likely to be ineffective in the delivery of services to a consumer. This can manifest as an unwillingness to take an active role in the consumer’s treatment, sub-standard documentation of services, skipped medication, or tardiness. As a result, the consumer and stakeholders may develop a negative opinion of NOVA, Inc.’s operations. 1 • Unhealthy work relationships Frustrated employees may antagonize their supervisors and co-workers. This may lead to unproductive, distressing interactions that detract from NOVA, Inc.’s operations.

Method: In two multisource studies involving employees and their supervisors from Email: [email protected] diverse organizations (S1: Nemployees = 166; Nsupervisors = 93; S2: Nemployees = 128; Nsupervisors = 85), we measured employee narcissism (S1, S2), employee sense of power, employee impression management tactics toward the supervisor (S2), and em- ployee promotability as rated by supervisors (S1–S2). Further, in an experiment (S3: N = 181), we tested the causal effect of employee sense of power on promotability. Results: Results favored the display of power perspective. Although narcissism pre- dicted both higher self-promotion toward the supervisor and greater sense of power, it was the latter that explained the positive relation between employee narcissism and promotability ratings. Conclusion: Employees high on narcissism act as if they have more power in or- ganizations, and thus, demonstrate behavior that would be expected in higher level positions.
