Business Evaluation
Many businesses go along in a rather hit or miss fashion,
casting about for ideas to explain why their projects improve or
decline, why they are successful or why they fail. Without
knowing how to investigate situations, good or bad and get the
true facts, a manager is surrounded by unevaluated data. When
confronted by matters he doesn’t understand, man tends to accept
the first seemingly workable explanation offered. Investigatory
technology had not been previously practiced or refined.
Personnel Assessment
A major difficulty
encountered in business today is to find the right person for
the job. Staff members and new recruits may seem suitable but
then they fall short in some vital way. Time and money are lost
while the less-than-suitable staff member holds the position.
Then there are further losses while a replacement is found.
Organisation Technology can assess suitability for any position
in an organisation by using several time-proven testing methods.
All that is required is a detailed description of the post and
the test answers. A detailed summary can then be provided of the
person’s personality and abilities and a definite answer
regarding the person’s suitability for that position.
Management by
Statistics
Many companies record vast amounts of data but do not use the
information to manage effectively. Most managers rely too
heavily on instinct or opinion to decide on courses of action.
This is highly risky. It also demands that the manager has great
personal skill.
Every division, every department and every job is monitored by
statistics. Management deals with consolidated statistics from
across the company. Detailed statistics are mainly viewed only
by those personnel immediately involved with the activities
those statistics measure. The statistics are graphed and
displayed on a large board. Managers can tell in a single
glimpse how each part of the organisation is functioning, is it
increasing, declining are remaining level. Changes in graphs can
be used to isolate causes of improvement or deterioration.
