Does Organizational Image Matter? Image, Identification, And Employee Behaviors In Public And Nonprofit Organizations, Eunju Rho, Taesik Yun, Kangbok Lee
Does Organizational Image Matter? Image, Identification, And Employee Behaviors In Public And Nonprofit Organizations, Eunju Rho, Taesik Yun, Kangbok Lee
Eunju Rho
Organizational image, identity, and identification are powerful concepts in terms of understanding members’ behaviors and beliefs. In particular, the term “image” has frequently been used to describe the overall impression of the organization, but most scholars have only focused on organizational image as it is perceived by external audiences. However, organizational image as perceived by members within an organization is critical for determining its impact on individual employees’ motivation, work behaviors, and further performance at work. This article explores the roles of organizational image and identification in explaining organizational behaviors—extra-role behavior and absenteeism—in public and nonprofit organizations. A series of …
The Role Of Leadership In Creating A Strategic Climate For Evidence-Based Practice Implementation And Sustainment In Systems And Organizations, Gregory Aarons, Mark Ehrhart, Lauren Farahnak, Marisa Sklar
The Role Of Leadership In Creating A Strategic Climate For Evidence-Based Practice Implementation And Sustainment In Systems And Organizations, Gregory Aarons, Mark Ehrhart, Lauren Farahnak, Marisa Sklar

There is a growing impetus to effectively implement evidence-based practices (EBPs) in health and allied health settings in order to improve the public health impact of such practices. To support implementation and sustainment of EBPs, it is important to consider that health care is delivered within the outer context of public health systems and the inner context of health care organizations and work groups (3). This article identifies two relevant types of leadership for implementation and recommends steps that leaders can take in developing a strategic climate for EBP implementation and sustainment within the outer and inner contexts of health …

During the past fifty years, organizational scholarship on leadership has shifted from a focus on the significance of leadership for meaning-making to the significance of leadership for economic performance. This shift has been problematic for two reasons. First, it has given rise to numerous conceptual difficulties that now plague the study of leadership. Second, there is now comparatively little attention to the question of how individuals find meaning in the economic sphere even though this question should arguably be one of the most important questions for organizational scholarship. This chapter discusses several reasons for the shift, arguing that one of …
Creativity From Constraint? How Political Correctness Influences Creativity In Mixed-Sex Work Groups, Jack Goncalo, Jennifer Chatman, Michelle Duguid, Jessica Kennedy
Creativity From Constraint? How Political Correctness Influences Creativity In Mixed-Sex Work Groups, Jack Goncalo, Jennifer Chatman, Michelle Duguid, Jessica Kennedy

Most group creativity research is premised on the assumption that creativity is unleashed by removing normative constraints. As work organizations become increasingly diverse in terms of gender, however, this assumption needs to be reconsidered since mixed-sex interactions carry a high risk of offense. Departing from the assumption that normative constraints necessarily stifle creativity, we develop a theoretical perspective in which creativity in mixed-sex groups is enhanced by imposing a norm to be politically correct (PC)—a norm that sets clear expectations for how men and women should interact with one another. We present evidence from two group experiments showing that the …
Determination Of Number Of Dedicated Or's And Supporting Pricing Mechanisms For Emergent Surgeries, Leo Macdonald, Jomon Aliyas Paul
Determination Of Number Of Dedicated Or's And Supporting Pricing Mechanisms For Emergent Surgeries, Leo Macdonald, Jomon Aliyas Paul
Leo MacDonald
Inefficient management of emergent surgeries in hospitals can, in part, be attributed to a lack of rigorous analysis appropriate to capturing the underlying uncertainties inherent to this process and a pricing mechanism to ensure its financial viability. We develop a non-preemptive multi-priority queueing model that optimally manages emergent surgeries and supports the resource allocation decision-making process. Specifically, we utilize queueing and discrete event simulation to develop empirical models for determining the required number of emergent operating rooms for a hospital surgical department. We also present algorithms that estimate the appropriate pricing for patient surgeries differentiated by priority level given the …

Take A Flying Leap: The Ascent To Success, R. Maxfield, Rodger Broome
R. Jeffery Maxfield, Ed.D.
Have you ever wanted to have more influence on your family, friends, or work associates? Effective leadership is not created from some long-lost, dark secret, but rather the development and application of attributes in four areas of one's life. In Take a Flying LEAP: The Ascent to Success, you will learn about and how to develop these attributes from people who have not only studied leadership and influence, but have lived it.
