An Orphanage in Cape TownRösbo, Jessica January 2009 (has links)
To collect data for this report a field study was performed at an orphanage in Cape Town, South Africa. I carried out volunteer work for eight weeks to find out more about the children’s situations. I wanted to find out what it was like to work at an orphanage for children in need and what the employees were doing to help. The children’s ages ranged from five to eighteen years old and they all lived together, although boys and girls slept in different rooms. Before I went to South Africa, I thought that an orphanage was a place for children without parents, who had been abandoned when they where infants. Some of the children at the orphanage come from situations like this, but many of them have family who they need help and protection from. Their own parents cannot take care of them because of different social problems such as sexual abuse, drug abuse or poverty. During the field study qualitative research was performed, where the people that I worked with and the children in the orphanage were participating. Observation was also included in my field work. The result of the field study was very interesting. The most important findings from my results were that all of the people I spoke to said that they would like to see some changes at the orphanage. They came up with plenty of different ideas to make the environment better. I interviewed five employees at the orphanage and all of them said that they would like to extend the amount of employees, have better communication among themselves, therapy sessions - and more weekend activities for the children. During this period of the field study I interviewed a lot of children of different ages, but out of the interviews six where used in this report.

Anonymous screening process for selecting the most qualified finalists in administrative employment searchesGroll, Bruce Jeffrey 07 May 1992 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to design an objective-based
Anonymous Screening Process (ASP) for selecting the
most qualified finalists for non-tenured administrative
employment searches in public higher education. The intent
was to design a viable employment process that substantially
meets equal opportunity mandates, the dual aim of the
Federal government's affirmative action efforts to eliminate
the discriminatory effects of the past and to bar future
discrimination, and the goal of the U.S. Congress of
improving the economic status of disabled individuals by
removing discriminatory barriers to full employment.
An anonymous screening process is part of a
comprehensive employment process, including recruitment,
application, evaluation, and selection, wherein an
applicant's name, race, religion, color, sex, age, handicap,
and institutional identify are unknown to all persons
involved in the process through selection of the most
qualified finalists.
An anonymous applicant screening process will minimize
evaluator bias, effectively eliminate the interjection of
non-objective criteria from external sources in selecting
the most qualified finalists, and provide a defensible basis
for using protected class status in the final selection as
an additional criterion in situations of
underrepresentation. / Graduation date: 1992

Developing conventional and intelligent job aids : a case studyRuyle, Kim E. 30 November 1990 (has links)
Job aids are instruments used on the job to improve
human performance by enhancing the knowledge and/or skills
of performers. Conventional job aids are usually printed
on paper; examples include checklists, recipes, and decision
tables.
Expert systems are computerized job aids which interact
with novices to help solve problems normally reserved for
human experts. Because expert systems emulate human
intelligence, they are sometimes called intelligent job
aids.
The purpose of this study was to extend the body of
knowledge concerning conventional and intelligent job aids.
The intent was to learn what major differences and
similarities exist in the design, development, and
application of conventional and intelligent job aids. If
meaningful differences in the application were found, an
additional aim was to determine why they existed.
Job aids were developed to assist technicians in
diagnosing problems with Robert Bosch electronic fuel
injection systems found on certain John Deere diesel
engines. The job aids were validated and then field tested
by 42 John Deere technicians. Subjects used both job aids
to solve problems with a mock fuel system. The diagnoses
were video-taped for later evaluation, and subjects
proffered their opinions about the job aids through
questionnaires and in interviews.
For this project, the intelligent job aid contained more
textual and graphical content and required significantly
more time and resources to develop. In terms of accuracy
and efficiency, the job aids were comparable. Most users
preferred the intelligent job aid though it required more
time to learn to use than the conventional job aid. The
age, education, or experience of the users did not influence
their opinions of the job aids. However, the order in which
the job aids were used did affect opinions; subjects that
used the conventional job aid prior to the intelligent job
aid were more likely to prefer the intelligent job aid.
Implications for job aid project selection, design, and
application are provided. / Graduation date: 1991

Characteristics of Effective Mentoring in a Formal Mentoring SettingLuckey, Rebecca Ann 2009 December 1900 (has links)
A qualitative phenomenological study was conducted to determine the perceived
levels of effectiveness and barriers for a successful mentoring relationship between
mentors and mentees. Specifically, this study explored the formal mentoring
relationships within Texas AgriLife Extension's Mentoring Program. Research was
conducted on mentoring relationships from mentor and mentee perspectives to determine
how they perceived the relationships' effectiveness, which may serve as a model for
further research.
The population for this longitudinal study was mentors and mentees in a formal
mentoring relationship between the years of 2004 and 2008 within Texas AgriLife
Extension Service. One hundred-six mentoring relationships were examined over a five
year period. The data were gathered from an open-ended evaluation instrument
administered at the end of the one-year mentoring relationship.
Wells, (1997) served as the conceptual framework for this study. Wells's model
is based on the nine roles of value-creating order, inspiring action, and improving
performance-and was used to identify skills that could build professional capacity for a mentor and mentee. The findings of this study indicated that mentors and mentees
perceived the formal mentoring program to be effective in sharing knowledge, resources,
and experiences. Mentors and mentees indicated that the barriers of time, distance,
differences, and work load existed and the relationship could have been improved if
barriers were minimized. The perceived characteristics that emerged for an effective
mentoring relationship were trusting, encouraging, and leadership.
Recommendations were made that researchers should continue to look at training
and processes for mentors and mentees preparing for a mentoring relationship.

Customer-oriented behavior is the necessary condition for business to exist in the world and it becomes the business management trend. Medical treatment in Taiwan will make a revolution in the 21st century by the medical policy changes. This situation makes the hospital management become harder and face more challenges.
Medical service industry doesn¡¦t only have normal trait like the common service industry, but also have many specific traits. However, the hospital is a working environment with high emotional labor load. If hospital employees can not deal with their emotions appropriately, it will cause emotional exhaustion and influences customer-oriented behaviors. In order to understand if the emotional exhaustion is a mediator between the emotional labor load and the customer-oriented behavior, also, if the emotional management affects the emotion labor load, emotion exhaustion and customer-oriented behavior is the research purpose.
The samples are 503 employees of two hospitals at Kaohsiung, but the valid questionnaires are 399. After SPSS for Windows 8.0 statistic analyzing, the results are summarized as following:
1. The hospital employees with different characters will lead to variance emotional labor load, emotional exhaustion, emotional management and customer-oriented behaviors.
2. There is a relationship between the emotional labor load, emotional exhaustion and
customer-oriented behaviors.

AbstractWen, Jin-Ching 02 August 2005 (has links)
Because of more and more emphasis on citizen¡¦s welfare, governments
unceasingly expand the capability in order to serve citizens. It leads to the
excessive expansion of the bureaucratic systems, and increase public financial
burden. However, the government expansion didn¡¦t lead to high efficiency
and efficacy of administration, a instead the gigantic government bureaucratic
system became more and more tardy and inefficient. In addition, under the
pressure of the globalization and national competition, many countries seek to
the transformation of their administrative systems. They utilize the
government operative model with the concept of compression and modern
business concept. Non-departmental Public Body lying between corporation
and government makes carrying out policies more flexible. On one hand,
NDPB apply the business management to intensify the operative flexibility and
promote the national competition. On the other hand, it can promote the
efficiency of the government with flexible organization and creative
professionals to simplify the process.
The Executive Yuan of the Republic of China amended a draft about
planning the organizational transformation in which there will be combination
of nine testing government organizations in order to transform to NDPB style to
promote Taiwan¡¦s research standard, increase our agricultural competitive
strength and confront the challenge of join WTO. Therefore, the policy of
NDPB for national agricultural research administration has already been
included into prior drafts of a proposed law. At the same time, the
government appoints agriculture association to strengthen the declaration,
especially adopt the principle with which employees will get the promise
ensuring their rights and interests. Besides, they must make related people
fully understand the policy in order to avoid unnacessary misunderstanding.
This research takes the livestock products testing institute for example
to investigate the influence of NDPB, including the extent of employees¡¦morale
and the overall organizational performance. Fist, I make appointment with
some specialists from all aspects, and then according to the result of the
interviews with those professionals, I make a poll to investigate and analyze
IV
opinions and acceptance of related employees after NDPB to benefit the
government to develop related measures. The main reaserch outcome is that
NDPB will lead to uncertainty and change which influence employees¡¦job
security and organization commitment affecting organizational performance.
Especially, policy changes resulting from NDPB will lead to the changes of
employees¡¦ attitude, such as the change of subsidy policy in which every
institution has to expand their financial resource by itself after NDPB. Totally
distinct policies will positively lead to job insecurity and hold back the efforts
which will affect the most important thing, the performance.
