Abstract:

Employer Branding activities in the competitive labour market are becoming increasingly interactive rather than being a top-down exercise. Limited resources together with new technology is playing a role in this development. Little, but some research exists on Employee Advocacy or the voluntary promotion and defence of a brand by its employees. While some researchers suggest that strong Employer Brands fosters Employee Advocacy, there seem to be little empirical support or comprehensive models incorporating the supportive factors. Earlier studies have been primarily quantitative in nature, foc

Businesses that actively engage in integrated internal communication practices should theoretically be more likely to foster employee engagement during change management interventions. Competitive forces and a dynamic business environment compel most organisations to continuously review the relevance of their current business operating model. As a result, organisations develop new strategies or revise existing ones. Part of the change management process of executing a strategy is the ability to communicate it to employees, in a manner that ensures alignment between strategy and employee. The c

Abstract:

Both academics and practitioners have devoted increasing attention to the physical work environment (i.e. the constructed spaces in which employees work, including buildings, furniture and spatial design) as a result of continued changes to the nature of work, and the space where it is enacted. Although there have been many studies of environmental effects on employees, including experimentation and a great deal of applied change, the field lacks a consistent theoretical framework to progress the extant literature. This is reflected in the inconsistency with which the physical environment has

Abstract:

Employee performance is a constant concern for any manager in a company or organisation. Managers have the unenviable task of balancing the meeting of organisational targets through the resources at their disposal. They must also manage their own responsibilities and personal targets which could be different to targets of the employees. These differences could create divergent priorities and affect the manager-employee relationship. Managers, in an effort to create a healthy work environment, need to show leadership qualities that encourage cooperation from their employees. These qualities mus

An employee who has a low level of awareness of how behaviours impact corporate reputation, and access to large online communities, could potentially expose the business to reputational risk.

Employees and their behaviours represent the reality of the organisation to external stakeholders, and so offer a potential risk for reputational damage.This research used an online survey with Likert sc

This means that companies needs to focus on retaining their personnel.

Total Quality Management (TQM) has been around in the West since the early 1970s. Over the last 40 years it has advanced from its early form, based around ‘quality circles’, to more advanced forms such as Lean and the now common Business Excellence (BE) models. However, up to 60% of implementations fail to deliver initially anticipated results. Research into Lean/TQM suggests that management commitment and conducive culture are key factors inhibiting subordinate engagement. Yet it is recognised that the ‘softer’ side of TQM is vital for its success and a key dimension of Lean/TQM philosophy. T
