One resource for learning more about the problem is an online paper titled Human Resource Management, Industrial Relations and Achieving Management Objectives at the International Labor Organization website (http://www.ilo.org). The resource paper is written by S.R. de Silva of the East Asia Multidisciplinary Advisory Team, ILO, Bangkok, TH. The following links are to sections of the paper: human
resource management and management objectives (trends) De Silva gives credit to those whom he quotes. The following are paraphrase examples of a couple of them. Source links at the end of each paragraph goes directly to de Silva's notes which are at the end of his paper. Entrepreneurs are
pointed out under Trends
on Human Resource Management and Management Objectives as being
skillful in putting together ... coalitions and building teams of
devoted employees who feel a heightened sense of joint involvement and
contribution to decisions. The quote goes on to indicate that management with
an entrepreneurial bent
stay in close contact with worker teams ... ensuring (their) access
to information, resources and the support needed for implementation. The
quoted source uses the term quality circles "Corporate entrepreneurs - single-minded individuals that they are - still get their projects done by crafting coalitions and building teams of devoted employees who feel a heightened sense of joint involvement and contribution to decisions. The integrative, participative vehicles surrounding innovators - open communication, interdependent responsibilities, frequent team efforts- keep them close to the power sources they need to operate, ensuring access to information, resources and the support needed for implementation. Involving grass roots employees on participative teams with control over their own outcomes helps the organization to get and use more ideas to improve performance and increase future skills. Whether called 'task forces', 'quality circles', 'problem-solving groups', or 'shared-responsibility teams', such vehicles for greater participation at all levels are an important part of an innovating company. Masters of change are also masters of the use of participation." |
