Workplace stress and female employees' performance.

Oloo, Rebecca A. January 2004 (has links)
Stress is placed upon anything that is given special emphasis or significance, especially where this leads to, or involves, psychological, emotional and physical strain or tension. A part of it is therefore subjective, in that different reactions are produced in different individuals by the same set of circumstances. Stress is caused by a combined physical and psychological response to stimuli (stressors) that occur or are encountered during the course of living. The study will look at causes of stress and workplace stress and its impact on female employees' performance. Stressors from a general perspective will be identified. Further, workplace stress will be dealt with in detail using the integrated stress framework. The study will also look at effects on employees of negative feedback on self, as for example when a hierarchical superior in the course of an appraisal interview states that performance is unsatisfactory. The study will orientate towards a few questions such as: to what extent are individual well-being and performance similarly affected by stressors of various kinds, and to what extent to their effects appear to be distinct? What are the social and organizational conditions which give rise to the immediate stressors, and what qualities of personality and interpersonal relations mitigate the effects of stress? Creating workplaces that work for women and why the 'bottom-line' benefits workplaces that attract women are important components of this study. Further, organisations that target female consumers or clients is increasingly important as more women are entering the workforce and their spending power and disposable income continues to grow. To ensure a successful market focus on women, employers will want women employees to be a critical component of their organization. However, the mere presence of women in the workplace will not guarantee positive outcomes. What is required is a variety of best practice changes to ensure a work culture in which diversity is valued and effectively leveraged for better performance. A self-administered questionnaire will then be sent out to respondents to get their views on the effects of stress that they have felt in the past 12 months and how they rate their workplaces. Their views will also be sought on performance management issues and how to improve their performance management systems. A holistic approach which incorporates stress management into company health and i safety policies is viewed as the optimal strategy of this study. / Thesis (MBA)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, 2004.

Strategies for related diversification.

Docrat, Ahmed. January 2003 (has links)
" ... every related diversification is also fundamentally an unrelated one" (Mintzberg, 1991). Due to the cyclical nature of the demand for construction, quantity surveyors are forced to contend with large fluctuations in the demand for their services. This has prompted firms to consider diversifying into more lucrative ventures. This study explores the concept of diversification as a means to offset cyclical fluctuations, and to stimulate growth. The available literature emphasises the advantages of related diversification over unrelated diversification. It is argued that this creates synergy between the new business and the core one, thus leading tp competitive advantage. The study is based on BTKM, a medium sized Quantity Surveying practise. Growth opportunities in their core business have begun to decline, and the cyclical nature of demand for construction has led to uncertainty, which makes long term strategic planning difficult. A study of the company's skills and resource strengths shows that it is well positioned to capitalise on opportunities in related businesses. By virtue of their core competencies, Quantity Surveyors possess the ability to solve complex problems and challenges regarding the planning and management of facilities. Organisations have come to realise the importance of ensuring that their buildings, systems and services support core operations and contribute to achieving strategic objectives. This has led to the growth of a new field of endeavour - that of Facilities Management. This is a rapidly growing professional field that provides excellent prospects for suitably qualified personnel. This study explores the option of diversification into this field. / Thesis (MBA)-University of Natal, (Durban) 2003.
