Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2003. / This study is an evaluation of the components of organisational success and how
they combine to distinguish employers of choice from other organisations. Being an
employer of choice is attracting interest in the employment market as organisations
attach a perceived value to this.
Employers of choice are not only of interest to organisations but also to prospective
employees who are increasingly choosing the companies for which they would prefer
to work according to organisation ran kings. Job seekers try to move to top
companies as the benefits and opportunities are believed to be better.
This study looks at the various surveys and opinions available in an attempt to
identify the specific criteria that make one organisation better than another. These
criteria are then evaluated and conclusions drawn regarding the extent to which they
are beneficial to organisational performance. Most of the criteria appear to be
components of sound human resource management practices. This leads us to
believe that success is driven by sound practices, which in turn attract top performers
who can continue the cycle by adding improved organisational performance.
Being an employer of choice and being a top-performing organisation cannot be
separated. The two concepts are interdependent as the one fuels the other.
