With this in mind and in conjunction with two other research partners, we conducted a conceptual meta-analysis for an organization's quest of optimal team performance in this rapidly paced global business environment. Our research paper entitled "A Conceptual Meta-Analysis towards high performing organizational constructs: An Organizational Universe Model" was published this March in the Journal of International and Strategic Studies. Here are some data points for consideration based on our research....
Every organization.....
- establishes its vision, etc around the quest for sustainable success (the SUN in our model)......
- has a "force field" comprised of its organizational culture and communication, similar to the gravitational pull associated with our planets.....
- possesses a number of planets in quest of those sustainable positive results: in our model these include...
the leadership,
the followers,
the espoused values & beliefs (have you uncovered that we consider the org culture a force field while viewing the "espoused" aspects as a planet....)
the team constructs within, &
the goals and objectives.
At this point you may be wondering or thinking, "who cares"????? Our contention is that every organization needs to care because, each of these aspects are crucial as to their optimal alignment in response to that continual constant called "change", lest they remain stagnant and unable to proactively adapt.....organizations that recognize this are far more "functionally mature" and ultimately more successful which we will bring forth in coming research on this topic. Meanwhile, care to take a peek at our model? Here it is; simplistic in nature with depth requiring further exploration.....
