Abstract:
The present study attempted to answer two questions: do academic library users have a distinctive and useful input to make to library strategic planning? If they do, what mechanisms will permit them to participate effectively in this planning process? To address these questions research was carried out in two stages at a single institutional site, the Canberra College of Advanced Education. The first of these utilised a structured group discussion process, Nominal Group Technique (NGT).

Call Centres represent one of the fastest growing industries today. In a competitive business environment the service delivered by Call Centre operators needs to be quantified and this is achieved through Electronic Performance Monitoring (EPM).

Abstract:
<p> The purpose of this study is to establish a relationship between responsiveness of hospital staff to a patient's call for help and the hospital fall rate. Patient falls are a very serious matter so data that furthers understanding in this area may be of help for hospitals trying to raise patient satisfaction scores, improve patient outcomes, and improve financial impact. The data utilized in this project are datasets downloaded from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) website.</p><p> Two hypotheses were tested from each extreme end of the responsiveness spectrum.

Abstract:
This study assesses the extent to which employees and users of public services can develop collaborative partnerships that promote person-centred services within institutions. Both citizen and worker participation are currently advocated as a means to develop public services, yet academically they have been studied within distinctive disciplines. Drawing together different theories of participation alongside the analysis of the concepts and practices of co-production, co-design and co-creation, this thesis establishes an analytic framework, termed co-participation to explore processes of colla
